i'm using a poker program that uses PostgresSQL 8.3 for its database.
Works fine.

I want to access that databsse from my laptop over my wireless network in
my home. Reason, so I can play on either machine and the data is up to date
at all times on either machine.

I'm on a cable system that says it has dynamic addresses but every time I
log on I seem to have the same address.

I would think the IP addresses within my network would remain the same at
all times.

I was pointed to some instructions for doing this but can't make it work. I
have disabled the firewall on the desktop but can't connect either with or
without the firewall I get the same errors.

Can someone point me to a good set of instructions on how to access a
remote database over my wireless network on Windows 7 64 bit?

Thanks
