Dear Sam.
Thank you very much for your help. You've solved my problem.
But I still can not login to my PostgreSQL-Server.
Here what I've done:
"
postgres@sussy:/root> createuser -D -P ricky
could not change directory to "/root"
Enter password for new role:
Enter it again:
Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y
postgres@sussy:/root>
sussy:~ # rcpostgresql restart
Shutting down PostgreSQLServer angehalten
done
Starting PostgreSQL
done
sussy:~ # psql -U ricky -W
Password for user ricky:
psql: FATAL: Ident-Authentifizierung für Benutzer »ricky«
fehlgeschlagen (I translate it: psql: FATAL: Ident-Authentication
for user »ricky« failed)
sussy:~ #
".
I'm sure that I used the correct password as "createuser" the
account of 'ricky'.
Please keep telling me.
Thank you very much in advance.
