Hi, I don't know how you connect, but if you write something like: $db_conn = pg_connect("host=your_servername dbname=lms user=someone password=whatever") or die("Something is wrong!"); and in the pg_hba.conf: host lms 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0 trust sameuser then it should work, if someone is allowed to use the database lms. Offcourse you should restart PostgreSQL when you change these files. I also have: host all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 md5 in my pg_hba.conf. Then all users can use the database, if they supply a valid password.
