Do you have something like tcpip_socket in your postgresql.conf (I
don't know if it was in 6.5)? If so, you have to set it to true to
make PostgreSQL listen on the network.

As for the upgrade path, I'll go with:
- dump with 7.3 pg_dump, insert your dump into a 7.3 db and run
adddepends contrib shipped with 7.3 on your db (it should fix the
foreign key problem reported by Zdenek);
- then dump your 7.3 db with 8.3 pg_dump and insert your dump into
your 8.3 server.
