} Secondary password files aren't supported anymore as of 7.3. If that's
} not in the release notes, it's a serious oversight :-(
It certainly isn't mentioned in README or INSTALL. Anyhow, how do I take
the existing external password file (which has encrypted passwords) and
put it into the DB? Can I just update the passwd field in pg_shadow with
the password string in the external file? Does it use the same
encryption? Is it still called password in the pg_hba.conf, or something
else?
