No, they're subtly different. different. Your message was connection refused, but mine was invalid packet size. In other words, I connected to the PostgreSQL server (but it didn't like what I said), but you didn't. Are you sure you have a working network connection between XP and your Linux VM? Can you ping the VM from XP?
