Hey went ahead and tried to query across machines and facing following
error:
SELECT * FROM dblink_connect('host=x.x.x.x port=5432 dbname=postgres
user=postgres password=test')
could not connect to server: Connection timed out (0x0000274C/10060)
Is the server running on host "x.y.z.com" (x.x.x.x) and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Tried modifying pg_hba as follows:
1st try
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5
2nd try
host all all .z.com md5
postgresql.conf looks good for connections and authentication:
listen_addresses = '*'
Please suggest?
Thanks...
