+### Configure GitLab-container to use external database running in remote host
+
+I am running remote postgreSQL server in google cloud. The machine runs with 1 CPU 4 GB RAM Ubuntu 16.04 50 GB memory. The installation is same than above.
+
+To connect to remote GitLab edit the /etc/postgresql/9.6/main/pg_hba.conf file:
+```
+# IPv4 local connections:
+host    all             all             ip           md5
+```
+Because our virtual machines are running in the same network I added the internal ip-address of the database.
+
+Also change in /etc/postgresql/9.6/main/postgresql.conf file:
+```
+listen_addresses = '*'
+```
+So now the server is listening all connections.
