Hi,
I are trying to upgrade from Postgresql v7.3 Cygwin environment  to 8.0.1 on a plain Windows environment.  So, far, I can get most of the data transferred, but I cannot get the large objects.  Perusing the net, I got a hint that I must use the -d dbname with the pg_restore utility.  Unfortunately, I keep getting the error message:

        pg_restore: [archiver (db)] connection to database "test3" failed: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "admin_user"

     The "test3" database can be accessed with admin_user with no problems using psql.

        What am I doing wrong?
