Hi,

There are a number of things to check to fix this error:

1) Can you ping the server from the workstation. If so, then your network is
OK, if not then you will need to sort that out.
2) Is PostgreSQL running and accepting tcp/ip connections? Make sure that
the postmaster is started with the -I option to enable this.
3) Check the host & port number on the pgAdmin II login dialogue. The port
defaults to 5432 (as does PostgreSQL), but if you've specified something
else on the server then you must specify it here as well.

Sound's like pgAdmin II is exactly the tool you want!

Let me know how you get on,
