I have never used 'ident map" on any system. Yes, I know where the
postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf' files
are located on Ubuntu, since I stated I modified them to allow internet
connections and to use proper
authentication. PostgreSQL has always allowed the apache user (nobody or
apache) on some systems and
the requested user (xxxxxxxx) to allow one to connect to the database from
an external system.
Its only the Ubuntu 12.04 (and perhaps earlier versions) that does not allow
the apache user (www-data)
and provided data to be different.
So, what you appear to be saying is PostgreSQL acts differently on Ubuntu
then it does on all other systems.
Very strange.
