But before doing so, I urge you : Your line in pg_hba.conf as is is EXTREMELY INSECURE I suggest to be more tight than "all" and "trust" Use a comma separated list of users (exclude postgres) Use a comma separated list of databases (excluding templates and pg_) Use "password" instead of "trust", at least. So create some users with limited grants, with a password, even if these are script users. No network can be trusted. User postgres is (and should stay) the only one user capable of DROP DATABASE x I strongly recomment not to use user postgres for runtime remote connections. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
