[Rails] a remote database issue

[Robby Russell]

I am trying to connect to a remote postgresql database and am having no
luck when I run rake.

For example:

 rake outputs:

>pg_dump: [archiver (db)] connection to database "dbname" failed: could
>not connect to server: No such file or directory
>        Is the server running locally and accepting
>        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
>dropdb: could not connect to database template1: could not connect to
>server: No such file or directory
>        Is the server running locally and accepting
>        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
>createdb: could not connect to database template1: could not connect to
>server: No such file or directory
>        Is the server running locally and accepting
>        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
>psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
>        Is the server running locally and accepting
>        connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?

my database.ymp looks like this:

>development:
>  adapter: postgresql
>  database: dbname
>  host: 192.168.1.25
>  port: 5432
>  username: webuser
>  password: password

Why is it trying to use the sockets when I need it to connect remotely?
It almost seems like it is ignoring the host: 

Any thoughts?
