title: How to connect to aws Redshift db from mac
body: <p>I am using a mac and I typically use Sequel Pro to interact with sql databases. Usually I use mysql, but I understand redshift uses Postgres.</p>
  
  <p>When I try to connect to my Redshift db, should I use the IP, or the "endpoint"?</p>
  
  <p>Also when I try to connect, I get this error from Sequel Pro.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Unable to connect to host {{my_db_host}}, or the request timed out.
  
  Be sure that the address is correct and that you have the necessary privileges, or try increasing the connection timeout (currently 10 seconds).
  
  MySQL said: Can't connect to MySQL server on '{{my_db_host}}' (4)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone offer advice on how to get connected?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
