two ways.

1: Set the pg server to just trust this user, connecting to x database
or all databases using the pg_hba.conf file
2: Set the normal md5 method in pg_hba.conf and use .pgpass file
(http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Pgpass) to set a password for libpq
to use when that user logs into the db.
