I'm not familiar with PgAdmin.  But I do use PsqlODBC (see
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/odbc/index.html )

You need to enable connections to the database backend over the network with
the -i option when starting the postmaster process.

		(Note that I am a general sql/postgresql/pgadmin novice -
I'm diving 
		in with both feet first.)

		I'm using PostgreSQL 7.0.2 jon RH Linux 6.2, and everything
there 
		seems pretty much ok. I'm having problems with getting
PgAdmin 
		7 on my Win98 machine to connect to the Linux machine via 
		ODBC.

		Is PgAdmin 7 compatible with PostgreSQL 7.0.2?

		I keep getting errors that indicate that either the password
is wrong 
		or the database doesn't exist. I know the database I'm
trying to 
		access exists. I've created a user with that password on the
Linux 
		machine. In pg_hba.conf I've even set all connections from
my 
		Win98 machine to "trust". Is there something I've missed in
the 
		docs which explains this problem?

		Where are the PgAdmin docs, anyway?

		Should I be directing some of these questions to the
Interface list?

		Thanks for your attention...
