I just did some testing. If the password is wrong, then it shows me the "authentication failed" message right in the terminal window, immediately. If the password is correct (plain text or md5 of that plain text -- both have similar requests), it shows me the second error "no working connection" below.

Why this inconsistent and utterly inane behavior from pgbouncer? Why can't we see transparently what the error is? Nowhere in the docs does it clearly specify with an example how the auth_file format should be. Any pointers please? I'm fresh out of google keywords to search for, two days later.
