John, su and sudo are OS commands and the examples you provide using them demonstrate attempts to start a shell as the postgres, OS user. pg_hba.conf is used to control access to the db, which you are not doing with those commands. You have not demonstrated how you are trying to get access to the db. The psql command is commonly used for that purpose and pg_hba.conf would come into play in that case. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/tutorial-accessdb.html Regards, Ray
