Hi,
I understand how the subnetting works. What I had problems with was
putting more than one IP address / hostname into the include file.
If my include file looks like so...
<file start>
1.2.3.4
<file end>
Then it works fine
If the include file looks like this...
<file start>
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.5
<file end>
Then it doesn't work (for either address) and I get an error like...
psql: FATAL: missing or erroneous pg_hba.conf file
Hope someone can help here...
Adam

You can add additional lines for each IP.
Or if all of your clients are on the same sub-network, then you can
alter your net mask in the above line to allow them. i.e.
<255.255.255.0> So for example if your client is 191.168.1.100 and your
next mask is 255.255.255.0, then all ip like 192.168.1.* will be allowed
to connect.
