Remote Access to my Postgres server

Question

I am trying to set up Postgres/PgAdmin to serve 3 other workstations in my office w/ ArcMap. In other words, not from localhost:5432. I know how to set up data connections on ArcMap locally, but I need to set it up for the office network/wifi. Recommendations on how to do this?

Yes! The Stack Overflow article refers to a connecting a virtual XP to a local Windows 7 machine on which Postgres resides. I was able to configure my pg_hba.conf file correctly (I think). Our network is basically just a small secure wifi network. Now I guess I just need to see if I can create database server/ database connection from one of my coworkers arcMap setups and pull some data in. Thanks for the references. Let me know if you have any other suggestions.
