1. Make sure you are logging connection attempts in postgresql.conf and
see if anything is happening there.
2. Make sure PG is listening on port 5432 (telnet localhost 5432, hit
return twice and you should see an error message)
3. Check your pg_hba.conf is allowing access from localhost (NOT local)
via passwords.
