Thanks for your immediate reply.

I created new role "db1" and database "db1".

but I cannot login using
         psql -Udb1 -ddb1 -hlocalhost
results
Fatal Error : Ident authentication failed for user "db1".

Waiting for your valuable suggestion.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if there is one. However, usually you su to the postgres
user which will let you in without a password. There you use
"createuser" to make a user for yourself.

Note, it really depends how the distributor has set the system up.
Allowing the "postgres" user password-less access is common because it
allows cronjobs as user "postgres" (backups for example) to run without
any extra configuration.

Have a nice day,
