Hi, I am running postgresql 8.3.11 and pgpool II 3.0 I am trying to get pg_pool to run on a development
server. Any userid defined with ‘trust’ level Access works fine, but having issues with ids defined with
md5 level therefore requiring a password. Reading the pgpool doc (http://pgpool.projects.postgresql.org/pgpool-II/doc/) I see that in order to enable md5 access I need to use the
pg_md5 function to initialize the /usr/local/etc/pool_passwd file: Login as DB user and type
"pg_md5 --md5auth into pool_passwd. If
pool_passwd does not exist yet, pg_md5 command will automatically create it for
you I have set my postgres database password as ‘steben’ I bolden my comments here simply for clarity. My attempt to follow the directions
above results in: [postgres@festiva data]$ pg_md5 --md5auth Usage: pg_md5 [OPTIONS] pg_md5 <PASSWORD> --prompt,
-p Prompt password using standard input. --md5auth, -m
Produce md5 authentication password. --help,
-h This help menu. Warning: At most 32 characters are
allowed for input. Warning: Plain password argument is
deprecated for security concerns
and kept for compatibility. Please prefer using password
prompt. So I try putting my password in first: pg_md5 steben --md5auth 2011-02-08 16:33:44 DEBUG: pid 27217:
num_backends: 0 total_weight: 0.000000 This gives the following result: [postgres@festiva etc]$ less pool_passwd postgres:md553b0e3d546770470d94e0e0bb3b5d24f But
when I use the –p switch on pg_md5 I get a different result: [postgres@festiva etc]$ pg_md5 -p password: (I enter “steben” here) 67800ffdc09d3badf5a3e8a4fd728952 Could you shed any light as to what I’m doing
wrong? Thank you, Mark Steben |
# pgpool Client Authentication Configuration File # =============================================== # # The format rule in this file follows the rules in the PostgreSQL # Administrator's Guide. Refer to chapter "Client Authentication" for a # complete description. A short synopsis follows. # # This file controls: which hosts are allowed to connect, how clients # are authenticated, which user names they can use, which databases they # can access. Records take one of these forms: # # local DATABASE USER METHOD [OPTION] # host DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD [OPTION] # hostnossl DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD [OPTION] # # (The uppercase items must be replaced by actual values.) # # The first field is the connection type: "local" is a Unix-domain socket, # "host" is a plain TCP/IP socket since pgpool currently doest not support # SSL connection. "hostnossl" is also a plain TCP/IP socket. # # DATABASE can be "all", "sameuser", a database name, or a comma-separated # list thereof. Note that "samegroup" like in PostgreSQL's pg_hba.conf # file is not supported, since pgpool does not know which group a user # belongs to. Also note that the database specified here may not exist in # the backend PostgreSQL. pgpool will authenticate based on the database's # name, not based on whether it exists or not. # # USER can be "all", a user name, or a comma-separated list thereof. In # both the DATABASE and USER fields you can also write a file name prefixed # with "@" to include names from a separate file. Note that a group name # prefixed with "+" like in PostgreSQL's pg_hba.conf file is not supported # because of the same reason as "samegroup" token. Also note that a user # name specified here may not exist in the backend PostgreSQL. pgpool will # authenticate based on the user's name, not based on whether he/she exists. # # CIDR-ADDRESS specifies the set of hosts the record matches. # It is made up of an IP address and a CIDR mask that is an integer # (between 0 and 32 (IPv4) that specifies the number of significant bits in # the mask. Alternatively, you can write an IP address and netmask in # separate columns to specify the set of hosts. # # METHOD can be "trust", "reject", "md5" or "pam". Note that "pam" sends passwords # in clear text. # # OPTION is the name of the PAM service. Default service name is "pgpool" # # Database and user names containing spaces, commas, quotes and other special # characters must be quoted. Quoting one of the keywords "all" or "sameuser" # makes the name lose its special character, and just match a database or # username with that name. # # This file is read on pgpool startup. If you edit the file on a running # system, you have to restart the pgpool for the changes to take effect. # Put your actual configuration here # ---------------------------------- # # If you want to allow non-local connections, you need to add more # "host" records. In that case you will also need to make pgpool listen # on a non-local interface via the listen_addresses configuration parameter. # # TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all mavmail md5 local all postgres md5 local all msteben md5 # IPv4 local connections: host all mavmail 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host all mavmail 192.168.1.221/32 md5 host all mavmail 192.168.1.222/32 md5 host all postgres 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host all postgres 192.168.1.221/32 md5 host all postgres 192.168.1.222/32 md5 host all msteben 127.0.0.1/32 md5 host all msteben 192.168.1.221/32 md5 host all msteben 192.168.1.222/32 md5
# PCP Client Authentication Configuration File # ============================================ # # This file contains user ID and his password for pgpool # communication manager authentication. # # Note that users defined here do not need to be PostgreSQL # users. These users are authorized ONLY for pgpool # communication manager. # # File Format # =========== # # List one UserID and password on a single line. They must # be concatenated together using ':' (colon) between them. # No spaces or tabs are allowed anywhere in the line. # # Example: # postgres:e8a48653851e28c69d0506508fb27fc5 # # Be aware that there will be no spaces or tabs at the # beginning of the line! although the above example looks # like so. # # Lines beginning with '#' (pound) are comments and will # be ignored. Again, no spaces or tabs allowed before '#'. postgres:67800ffdc09d3badf5a3e8a4fd728952
