Thanks Ray,

My psql seems a lot different from others. Loook what happened:

slitt@mydesk:~$ psql -U postgres -h localhost super
Password for user postgres: 
psql: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
slitt@mydesk:~$ psql -U postgres -h 127.0.0.1 super
Password for user postgres: 
psql: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
slitt@mydesk:~$

My postgresql.conf configures the port at 5433 instead of 5432, so I also 
tried this:

slitt@mydesk:~$ psql -U postgres -h localhost -p 5433 super
Password for user postgres: 
psql: FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
FATAL:  password authentication failed for user "postgres"
slitt@mydesk:~$

Thanks

Steve
