title: Connection refused.Check that hostname and port are correct and the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections
body: <p>I have Virtual Box installed where two instances of Centos are running. Lets 
  call them Centos 1 and Centos 2. I have successfully setup Confluence application on Centos with localhost Postgres DB in Centos 1.</p>
  
  <p>The Problem:</p>
  
  <p>When I am trying to setup confluence in Centos 2 it requires DB Connection If I provide the URL with the jdbc syntax it does not connect to the DB instance of Centos 1.</p>
  
  <p>JDBC URL:  <code>jdbc:postgresql://192.168.56.13:5432/confluence</code></p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The Error:org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Connection refused.Check that hostname and port are correct and the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>The nmap command from instance two to instance 1 is successful.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to edit the configuration as shown below

  <p>But I get a error when I give the command service postgresql restart
  I guess it is not taking my entry of
  host all all 192.168.56.105 trust</p>
  
  <p>Please Clarify.</p>
