Hello all, I would like to use password authentication for pgsql users for remote backup purposes. I don't like the fact storing cleartext password on a system. From documentation, i have learnt that passwords can be encrypted by md5 and crypt methods. But we know, that md5 is rather weak encryption, so I am asking is there any feasible way, how we can use SHA1 instead MD5?
