Daniel,
Thanks for the reply. I don't think psql would diagnose this as it wouldn't use a replication connection, just a
standardone. That is unless there is a way to force a replication connection through psql, and I just don't know it. As
itis, the postgres user has no issues getting in with psql, as in "psql csg_db" with no other options specified.
I'm almost certain that my /etc/hosts file is up to date and I see all three of my db servers in it. There are no IPv6
entriesin it at any event,

working.I'm trying to create a script for hourly backups using pg_basebackup, and here's the command I'm using:

off,but I have gotten this to work only if I use a "-h 10.10.1.129" option for the command. This only works since
anotherentry in the pg_hba.conf satisfies the command.

automaticallydeployed to various servers, I'd prefer to NOT specify each host's IP address both in pg_hba.conf file and
inthe script calling the pg_basebackup command. Oh, and at some point when this starts working, I am going to change
theuser from postgres to another without superuser capability.
