hi all,

during the 8.0.4 installation of pgsql, you are asked
for two passwords.

1. the account password
2. the db user password (as you know, postgres is the
db user name)

i understand the latter password and how to update it.

i don't understand the former password and i don't
understand how to change.  i googled it and i did a
quick search on postgresql.org, but came up empty.

can someone provide a quick overview of the account
password mechanics and explain how to update that
password to something new.

tia...

to help future googlers find this theead -  pgsql
postgresql change account password.
