Connecting to the database server

I think I got the data moved over from my old server. Now I am trying
to connect to the server with pgadminIII
I went into the postgers.conf and made these the changes I thought I
needed for me to log on and I did a restart but it is still telling me
that it can not connect.
Also I am getting a problem when I try to install the pg-DBD from yum.
I probably just need to go perl to install that I hope.
