Look at your pg_hba.conf file - your old configuration might have had a
"trust" authentication set somewhere for your local machine/network IPs,
rendering any password unnecessary.

Hi,
When I was running 8.0.X on linux, I didn't have to include the
postgres -P password in my shell scripts(.sh). After I switched to
8.1.X, I've had to include the -P PASSWORD ****** in all my scripts.
I'm thinking I'll just add PGPASSWORD as a postgres environment
variable instead. I did start running 8.1.X on a port that is
different from the default, so I added PGPORT as an environment
variable, so I don't have to include -p PORT NUMBER. Has anyone else
noticed they had to start including a password for the postgres user
in 8.1.X? Is there any concern to adding PGPASSWORD as an environment
variable.
Thanks for any feedback,
