Both of these entries do seem to be working properly. So the client is trying an SSL connection first (which would be the default behavior for libpq at least), and that falls through the hostnossl line and is captured by the md5 line. Hence you get a password prompt. The client has no way to know that a non-SSL connection would have gotten a different response. You could change the md5 line to hostssl, perhaps. Or configure the client to try non-SSL first (see sslprefer). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
