createuser: could not connect to database postgres: FATAL: password
authentication failed for user "postgres"
Odd I would have expected it to say something about identd
authentication failing.
Have you tried:
sudo su - postgres
createuser -d -A -P dpsace
?
Oh... I am sorry...you are right...the error is
"Ident authentication failed for user 'postgres' "
the error specified earlier appeared when i tried running.
createuser -h localhost -U postgres -d -A -P dspace
Thanks for pointing it out..
