I want to accomplish what I would think would be a simple thing. I want the root user to be able to connect to the postgres database as user postgres from the local machine without passwords. Since I am doing this from a program I don't want to use the su facility. I have tried a lot of different combinations of things into the pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf but I can't make anything work. Here is my pg_ident file pg_map root postgres Here is the line from pg_hba local all all ident map=pg_map What am I doing wrong here? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
