I'm trying to setup PostgreSQL so that, it will not ask password when
connected locally (socket) whereas it will ask when connected using
TCP/IP. This should apply ONLY to root account. But this is not working -

local all root trust
local all all md5
# IPv4 local connections:
#host all root 127.0.0.1/32 trust
#host all root ::1/128 trust
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all ::1/128 md5

I cannot give passwordless access to TCP/IP because then it will become
a big security hole using PhpPgAdmin exposed to the public.


Could you be more specific on what's not working? the exact error
message would be a great help. BTW, your settings are good for local
access, but you only allow localhost TCP/IP access.



There's no error message as such. It doesn't do what is expected - should not ask passwords for localhost.

If I connect as psql -U root -d postgres -h localhost, it still asks me for password.
