Thread: CIDR addresses in pg_hba.conf
here is a patch that allows CIDR netmasks in pg_hba.conf. It allows two address/mask forms: . address/maskbits, or . address netmask (as now) If the patch is accepted I will submit a documentation patch to cover it. This is submitted by agreement with Kurt Roeckx, who has worked on a patch that covers this and other IPv6 issues. cheers andrew

I have backed out this patch because it is now packaged inside of Kurt Roeckx's patch. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Dunstan wrote: > here is a patch that allows CIDR netmasks in pg_hba.conf.
