>
>Ok, here is one more try at the initdb default authentication stuff.
>This one adds the switches "--ident" and "--trust", which will
>configure
>pg_hba.conf with ident and trust authentication respectively. If trust
>authentication is selected, a warning is written to
>pg_hba.conf. The old
>switches for password prompt/file still apply.
>
>This one makes it mandatory to pick some kind of authentication. If
>that's not wanted, it's easy to change it to default to trust (which I
>think is wrong, but we've been through that already..)
>
>Oh, and this time, the comments are updated :-)
