yes

looks good to me, mine looks like this, and it works:
local   all         all                                             trust
host    all         all         127.0.0.1         255.255.255.255   trust
host    all         all         10.195.0.0        255.255.0.0       md5

Turn on logging (e.g. by using the -l option to pg_ctl)
and turn the line in postgresql.conf, which says
#log_connections = false
into
log_connections=true
Try to connect and look, if something shows up in your logfiles.

Something filtering inbetween? Logging connections as described
above might give you a clue what's happening.
