PG maintains user passwd within itself in a table called pg_shadow.
But based on the error message, it seems like you are having problem connecting to the server.
Try accessing PG from command line with something like psql(1) as in
psql -U proot -d databaseName
and see what error message do you get...can you connect to PG as a different user ?

Hello all,
Where do I find the PASSWORDs for users on Postgresql??? It seems
connections are failing because user PROOT's password is not correct - where
do I find out what it's set to - do I need to change it???
