Thanks in advance. There is no option to provide password in command line. You either have to use environment variable, as described here: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/libpq-envars.html or pgpass file, as described here: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/libpq-pgpass.html Both of these places are listed in docs for psql (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/app-psql.html) in part "connecting to a database". depesz -- The best thing about modern society is how easy it is to avoid contact with it. http://depesz.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
