We have postgreSQL 8.3.8 installed on a windows 8 server (64 bit).

We want to be able to run a nightly backup using the pg_dump command.

Unfortunately, even with the pg_hba.conf fix of adding host postgres ...
trust,=20

It still asks for a password.

1. Is this a 64bit issue? If the server was 32bit, would it not ask for
a password?

2. Is there a way of running a dos script that would run the pg_dump
providing a password when prompted?=20

3. Is there a way of running the pg_dump with a user that doesn't have a
password?

Thanks
