    Hi,

    
    Is 'Peer authentication' supported on HPUX ?  I am using PG 9.2 ,
    where i have set 

    
    postgres1 postgres postgres  --> in pg_ident.conf

    
    local all all ident map=postgresql1  --> in pg_hba.conf file

    
    ident_file='/home/Postgresql/9.2/data/pg_ident.conf'  --> in
    postgresql.conf file 

    
    server got restarted successfully but at the time of connecting to
    user 'postgres' , i am getting this message :-

    
    $ ./psql -U postgres postgres

    2013-03-30 23:25:18 EDT LOG:  peer authentication is not supported
    on this platform

    2013-03-30 23:25:18 EDT FATAL:  Peer authentication failed for user
    "postgres"

    psql: FATAL:  Peer authentication failed for user "postgres"

    
    Regards,
