your classpath setting might be wrong, it must includes the jar filename as
well, such as :

CLASSPATH = /usr/local/lib/postgresql.jar

you might also want to try :

//String url = "jdbc:postgresql://gina/testdb";
String url = "jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/testdb";
....
//Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "", "");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( url, "yourname", "");

hope that helps
