can you connect to pgsql via tcp for certain?

	#!perl
	use DBI;
	my $dbh=DBI->connect("dbi:Pg:dbname=whatever:host=localhost")
		|| die 'canna connect';

(try 'perl -MCPAN -e shell' and 'install DBI DBD::Pg' if you
don't have those perl modules)

try
	telnet localhost <postgresportnumber>
to be sure it's listening...
