I set up port forwarding. I assume that means all IP addresses using port 5432 will be sent to my laptop (that Postgres is running on). I don't remember setting up permissions for a specific IP in the router but it was a while ago so I could be wrong. When I get home I will have another look at the firewall settings and see.

Hi,
I'm having trouble getting a connection to Postgres to work from outside of my local network. It was working fine at one point. Then I had to change IP addresses and I can't get it to work. This is what I've done.
On the computer with Postgres installed I have this in the pg_hba.conf file:
host     all     all     207.6.93.152/32         md5
in the postgresql.conf file I have this:
listen_addresses = '*'
port = 5432
I also have the router set up to forward port 5432 to the computer with Postgres installed.

Did you check the firewall on the machine running Pg?  Iptables etc.
