Ccing list.
Thanks Adrian,
I had granted LOGIN to PostgreSQL user firstname.lastname but do Not
want to provide a database password,
rather I wanna access the database using my JumpCloud password directly
from my Macbook Pro using LDAP authentication or any other authentication.
Please suggest me following:
But I want to setup JumpCloud or LDAP or any other authentication so
that I can connect PostgreSQL user "firstname.lastname" directly from
my Macbook Pro Terminal using my JumpCloud Password. Like:-
That's outside my knowledge, so someone else is going to have to jump in
on this.
/Users/firstname.lastname > psql -h staging.mycompany.com <http://staging.mycompany.com/>
> <http://staging.mycompany.com <http://staging.mycompany.com/>> -U
firstname.lastname -d my_test_db
Password for user firstname.lastname: < I have Not given any password
when I created PostgreSQL user firstname.lastname above and trying to
authenticate here using my JumpCloud password, May be the same way as I
could connect above to root. But when I enter my JumpCloud Password here
there is an error. >
psql: error: could not connect to server: FATAL: password
authentication failed for user "firstname.lastname"

Well I would say the Postgres server has pg_hba.conf setup to require
password authentication for host(ssl) connections. A good idea.
You need to back to part above where you shelled into psql prompt and
use ALTER ROLE:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-alterrole.html
and do
ALTER ROLE firstname.lastname WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'the_password';
You need the LOGIN if you want that role to connect directly to
database.
FYI, the above can be done as part of CREATE ROLE also:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-createrole.html
You probably want to read through above anyway to see what the options
are and they do.
