Hi List,
     Iam pretty new to this list as well as PostgreSQL. I hope to find some crucial info from here.
Thnx in advance to all those who would contribute to it.
 
Iam basically an Oracle Consultant.
 
At first i would like to clarify how to enforce password for a user i have created.
 I use the psql client to access the database and unless and until the -U option
(psql template1 -U <user> ) is used, iam not prompted to enter any password.
Even thou i enter a wrong password iam still allowed to log in.
Is there any property needs to be altered to enforce the same ?
Looking forward for some favourable responses.
Regards
Balaji
