Did you check the documentation in /usr/share/doc/postgresql-8.3* ,
especially "README.Debian(.gz)" files? (It's been a while since I used
postgresql myself, so I lost track of its current status in Debian.)

You should also check if the process is actually running, as well as
which ports and sockets it has open. Run as root:

ps -ef | grep [p]ostgresql

lsof -U | grep [p]ostgresql

lsof -i | grep [p]ostgresql
