Ok, I tried a telnet from the command prompt of my XP machine, to the

And this did 'not' go through. It said could not open connection to
host, connect failed.

Well, this sounds like a network problem, as others have suggested. Check that your XP machine and the machine with the PostgreSQL server are on the same subnet, or are otherwise able to talk to each other. Are you able to use telnet or ssh to open a terminal session from one to the other? Did you try using psql to connect to the DBMS?
