Thread: Creating Superuser and password

Hey Folks,

       We are trying to integrate postgres with our product. Integrating installation process with our installer, so for setting up password for superuser there is an option in initdb to prompt a person  who is running initdb for password. Or other option is to provide password from file. But this approach seems insecure as password has to be in clear in the file. So is there any other way so that I can store password for super user before starting up server through installer.

Thanks & Regards,

Vikram
