using webmin: added allowed host IP address problem

dmalone · 07-16-2010, 12:21 PM

Hello
I am new to Linux. I am using Webmin to access a database. I finally acquired a static IP address. After entering it into the allowed host for the PostgreSQL server, I still can't access it through the SQL Manager for postgres in Windows. It doesn't seem to actually make the change. I am the new person managing this database. The old person use to be able to just add an IP address and it would connect. Is there something I am missing that I may need to install? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Debbie

More details...The software and database are housed on a server that is accessed through the internet. I can login as root with no problem. I can do some basic things through Webmin, like delete records, but I can't add them. It is much easier if I can connect using the EMS SQL Manager for PostgreSQl. Do I have to have everything also on my local machine to have full access or am I missing a package or something I may need to download and install?

Please help!
