Hello all,

 

I have recently installed postgres 8.3 and I was slightly thrown by the default authentication as set in pg_hba.conf

 

It appears that ident authentication is the default and not trust authentication. Has this changed between versions or has it always been this way?

 

Any illumination of this point would be appreciated!

 

Cheerio,

Nic Hemley
