Almost exactly the other way around. If you try to connect to a port
where no server is listening, you get a connection refused message.
If something is blocking the connection you may get a timeout.

O.O
You're right, obviously. Don't know why, it's since school days that 
sometines I swap these 2 error meanings (and have to deal with the 
consequences)...
But I'm confident that one day there will be no more swapping... 
hopefully until I retire ...:-)

Thanks for pointing out and sorry for the mistake

If you just removed the iptables rules, then every port is blocked.  If you
turned off iptables (service iptables stop, chkconfig iptables off,) then
iptables is disabled.

I have removed the rules in the iptables and restarted it and got nothing.
iptables is turned off and still nothing.

Connection refused means somthing has blocked it. If it was all OK and
simply Postgres was not listening, you should've received a "connection
timed out"(10060) message.
Have you tried adjusting/tearing off iptables and check what happens, as
also Ekaterina pointed out?

And, just as a side note, I normally don't activate IPv6 if it's not
necessary (it has not been necessary in the last 10 years :-) ), 'cause I've

so I'll try editing postgresql.conf as
