[sorry for the duplicate Richard] Thanks for the response Richard. I have tried to connect via pgAdminIII. When I try to connect to the remote machine, I enter \\<server>\<ip_address> into the host name field. What I found was it didn't matter what I entered into the hostname field (I put in random strings to test), it always brought up the databases on the localhost....

How are you connecting? PgAdmin, psql, Perl script? What is the hostname you are using on the local machine and are you sure it is for the remote machine? -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
