first : please use bottom posting , so it's more easy to read the mail history / thread from up to down.
Second: could you attach the pg_hba.conf ?
Third: how you connect to postgresql ?
Four: after modify the pg_hba.conf, did you reload or restart postgresql?
I explain: if you connect to "localhost" the rule
host all postgres localhost trust
make you enter in the database trough the 127.0.0.1 on 5432 ( I imagine you have the default settings and the firewall with the open port or firewall down ) without password
psql -U postgres -h localhost
will connect to database
if you not specified "locahost" the probably rule you will meet will be about "local" connection :
local all all peer
that will make you enter without password, only if your OS account exists in the database.
Bye
Mat

Hi, for some reason pgsql uses only the ipv6 configuration while i was changing the ipv4. Now everything is working again.
