It is pretty straightforward once you know that (a) you can turn
internet sockets on (and also do performance tuning!) by adjusting a
parameter in postgresql.conf and (b) you also add an entry to the bottom
of the strangely named "pg_hba.conf" find to allow trusted access to the
server from machines in your local network, thusly:

host         all         191.168.1.0     255.255.255.0     trust
