Adrian,

   I accessed a postgres database (my bookkeeping data) yesterday and the
only difference from then to now was upgrading postgres one third-digit
version.

   Prior to today my upgrades were generally one or two minor versions; e.g.,
from 9.3.x to 9.5.x, and done with pg_dumpall and restoration using psql.
Today I just used pg_ctl to stop the server, ran the normal Slackware
upgradepkg routines, and tried to restart the server. I do not see a
pg_hba.conf file anywhere in the source or build trees so I've no idea from
where this unworkable version came.

Thanks,

Rich
