This is pretty cool, thanks for pointing it out. Does the documentation
still need doing for this, or is my set out of date?

Also, can you specify a path to the password file? I've tried this, but
can't get it to work, so am assuming not, and that it has to be in the
same directory as the pg_hba.conf file, but just want to check.

Regards,

Mark.
