Thread: Pam Authentication is supported?

Hello to all

I have already searched the mailing list archive, but I could not find the
answer: Does JDBC Driver (v. 8.0-311) support user authentication with a
server 8.0.2 with pan configuration?

The documentation says
(http://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/80/prepare.html):

"Client authentication is setup in pg_hba.conf. Refer to the main PostgreSQL™
documentation for details. The JDBC driver supports the trust, ident,
password, md5, and crypt authentication methods."

But I am just checking

Thanks in advance

I believe so, but I've not tested it.  PAM really only affects how things
work on the server side, from the client's perspective they are still
using the equivalent of "password" authentication.
