Re: pg_hba.conf - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Mike,

I think if you set it up like this it would have worked as well:

host   all     all     10.15.0.0       255.255.0.0   trust

Your netmask was telling it that the first three octets of the IP address
were significant.

Hello,

I finally got it to work and as some have mentioned it was not the
encryption level.

I had setup my pg_hba.conf originally like this:

host   all     all     10.15.0.0       255.255.255.0   trust


I was under the impression that the .0 was supposed to be equivalent to a
wildcard entry so that any connection from 10.15 would be able to connect.
This was not so.  By changing my pg_hba.conf to this:

host   all     all    10.15.13.0      255.255.255.0    trust

I was able to connect successfully.  The .0 works as a wildcard entry for
the last part but not the one prior.


Hope that helps you.

Mike
