Is there a firewall on the box? Most modern Linux systems, ES3 included, can do their own firewalling, so you might wanna fire up whatever lets you edit the firewall on ES3 and see if you can poke a hole in it for port 5432. You can test if the server is responding on that port by using nmap nmap -p 5432 youriphere ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
