Thanks for the information. But how do I change the listening ip address to 0.0.0.0

Thanks again,

correct.

0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING

Not correct. It should display 0.0.0.0:5432. Did you restart postgres
after you changed postgresql.conf?

Connection timed out sounds like a firewall dropping packets, though. It
should be "Connection refused". But try to make it listen on 0.0.0.0
first.
