Maybe this is an easy one but,

I've created a user called 'ebstrack' and they own a database called 'ebs_dd'.

When I'm on a different server than the database server, and I do this at a unix prompt:

$> psql ebs_dd -U ebstrack --host=archer


It logs me in without a password, and I am able to SELECT off the tables.

Any idea on how to prevent this?

Thanks!
