ignore TCP/IP question

[Thomas Keller <kellert(at)ohsu(dot)edu>]

Well, I investigated the cgi script using DBI and DBD::Pg that was  
giving the error and discovered the connection string was the problem.
This is still curious, and I'd like to know why but I was able to fix  
it.
Here's the old $dsn variable:   ## this gave the "can't connect" error.
  my $dsn = 'dbi:Pg:dbname=db_name;host=server_name';

This fixed the problem:
 my $dsn = 'dbi:Pg:dbname=db_name';

So maybe there is something not quite right in my pg_hba.conf file. ??

thanks for any insights.
