I am starting with PostGIS and there is an error when trying to connect through a TCP/IP connection. What I have done is: installed PostGre 9.3 in my PC, then installed PostGIS 2.3 for postGre 9.3, then I tested the database in my computer using localhost and all worked fine, then I wanted to connect to the database form another computer that is in the same network (from now on, PC2).. I read many forums and then modify pg_hba.conf trying to allow PC2 to connect. I just couldn´t.
Default file:
# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 md5
# Allow replication connections from localhost, by a user with the
# replication privilege.
#host replication postgres 127.0.0.1/32 md5
#host replication postgres ::1/128 md5
And this is how I modified it:
# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all 10.0.0.99 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 md5
# Allow replication connections from localhost, by a user with the
# replication privilege.
#host replication postgres 127.0.0.1/32 md5
#host replication postgres ::1/128 md5
note that the new value is 10.0.0.99, which is the IP address of PC2.
Can anyone help?

Was dealling with same problem just few hours ago.
I think you should add a CIDR mask length (/32 for a single address - Wikipedia details) in ip-address section:
# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all 10.0.0.99/32 md5
.

.
After saving pg_hba.conf file you should restart server with new configuration just run pgAdmin and choose Reload configuration in Tools menu:
