Hi,

 

Question on pg_hba.conf.  I have these entries:

 

host    all             psgdba           localhost           trust

host    all             psgdba           127.0.0.1/32            trust

host    all             gd07           localhost                trust

host    all             gd07            127.0.0.1/32           trust

 


Can you post the whole of pg_hba.conf file?

You might have some other entry that is taking precedence.
 

 

Command to logon to Postgres:

/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/psql -d postgres


If you don't have PGHOST set then most likely you are not going over a tcp connection (which is what host entries in pg_hba are used for). Instead the local entries of pg_hba are taking effect.

 

If I am logged on ‘gd07’  at the server , it lets me log-on to Postgres without prompting for password


do you have a *.pgpass* file in the home directory?
 

If I am logged on as ‘psgdba’, it prompts for password.

As you can see, both have ‘trust’, but ‘gd07’ is the instance owner.

 

Why does ‘psgdba’ prompts?  What I am missing?

Your help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Maria
