Where should I specify "host=localhost"? in the $connection_string for
pg_connect()? It doesn't work either.
I was understanding "host" TYPE was for TCP/IP connections only (my
scripts run through Apache web server). That's why I didn't expect the
"local" record to do anything with my connections. If I include this
record in the "pg_hba.conf" file I can connect to the database:

Yes, I just want to make it run, then will tighten security measures.
Thanks.
