Hi, I am operating in an environment where we have regular users who will authenticate via PAM and software users for automated processes that would be more appropriate to authenticate via a password (encrypted or not - irrelevant to this question). I have taken a look through the documentation and google and done some trial and error, but I dont seem to be able to get this working for a single client to be able to use either method. My 2 guesses involved changing the $PGDATA$/pg_hba.conf to try these options: 1: host all all 0.0.0.0/0 pam,password (also tried space seperated as well as comma seperated) 2: host all all 0.0.0.0/0 pam host all all 0.0.0.0/0 password In both cases (neither caused an error) the first type wins and the other gives access denied. Does anyone know if it is possible to overload auth types like this such that if pam fails password would be tried? Many thanks in advance, Rob Cherry
