Are the client and server on different machines?  Is there a firewall
or other network filter in between?

"Connection refused" means the connection attempt is being rejected at
the network layer--either the PG server isn't running, or there's a
firewall, or the kernel on the server machine is rejecting the packet.

Can you do 'telnet 213.212.159.153 5432' on the client machine and get
a successful connection?
