That will probably not fix this problem.

What hostname/ip address are you specifying in the pgAdmin logon dialogue -
is it definitely a match for one of your pg_hba.conf entries?

Also, does netstat -a on the server indicate that a process is listening on
port 5432? If not, try starting the postmaster with the -i option incase
it's not picking up the default options for some reason.
