Hey,
So, I've searched around through the archives, and it seems this has
come up a couple times in the past. But one scenario that was never
explored was when using one .pgpass file in a cluster of servers, in
which case it makes sense to save it in source control, or something
like puppet/bcfg. So my question is this:
Has anyone come up with a good solution for distributing a .pgpass file
that doesn't expose it to anyone who has access to the distribution
mechanism?
I ask because several people can access and make pull requests to our
configuration management system, but except for .pgpass, none of these
files contain plain-text passwords. We have dozens of systems running
PostgreSQL, and manually setting up each one is a waste of time; we have
configuration management for a reason.
Am I just missing something, here?
Thanks, everyone!
