Have you tried PGPASSWORD env variable and unset it. I find it especially useful when scripting.

Hi, 

Is there a way of enabling a user to logon without being prompted for password?  I know  there is the .pgpass file,  but this file requires the port#  and my server has several postgres clusters with different port#.    So,  am  not sure
 if I can use the .pgpass file.

And at the pg_hba.conf file,  the id already has ‘trust’ method, but it is still being prompted for password.

This id will  be used for automated scanning and needs to run pg_dumpall.

Thanks.

You tried?

.pgpass

#Server 1
127.0.0.1:5432:user:password
#Server 2
127.0.0.1:5433:user:password
#Server 3
127.0.0.1:8899:user:password

pg_hba.conf

# Socket e localhost
local   all         all                               trust
host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32   trust

#Or external
host    all         user    10.10.10.38/32        trust
