title: Connecting to Amazon RDS
body: <p>I have a PostgreSQL RDS server running, but the only way I can connect to it is using pgAdmin III.</p>
  
  <p>Connecting via psql command line just hangs forever. Using node.js pg library doesn't work either (my end goal is to have my node server talk to it.)</p>
  
  <p>The RDS server is in a VPC with every inbound connection allowed, too. So no connection denied errors, just no responses apparently.<br>
  pgAdmin III works fine for some reason, no SSL or SSH Tunnelling.</p>
  
  <p>This is the error I get from nodeJS:  </p>
