Thread: postgresql 7 user passwords dont work ?????
users dont seem to need password in postgres 7 on red hat linux
6.2, compiled from source.
I do an:
alter user nsadmin with password 'whatever';
And then when I do an:
psql -u -d mydb
username: nsadmin password: NOTwhatever
IT STILL LETS ME IN ????
This should not be so should it ?
please advise, thanks
