Subject: Monitor/createdb problem

Hi,

I am using the 4.0.1a port of postgres to linux, on a 486 PC.
The backend (postgres binary executable) works fine, but I cannot run
createdb <database name>, or monitor. Both exit with an error message something
like:

Could not connect to backend (Port = 4321).
createdb failed for database foo.

I suspect that the problem may be that tcp/ip loopback may not be set up properly ...
I'm sure there is a document *somewhere* telling me how to set this up - could 
someone please tell me where?! (Or that the problem lies elsewhere).

Thanks,

Tim.
