Hello Paul:
What user are you using. Remember, you have a
brand new install and haven't created any users yet, except for the
superuser(postgres). Try connecting as the postgres(superuser).

btw, are you trying to start postmaster as root? it seems that there's a
bug in postgresql: it says it started successfully when you start it as
root, but it doesn't start. start it as pgsql (freebsd) or postgres (linux)
