I've used Postgres on Linux for several years, and I have relied on the 'ident' authentication method for system administration and other tasks. Now I need to get a postgres database up and running on Solaris. The problem is that 'ident' authentication is not supported on Solaris. I can't figure out how to do simple things, such as running pg_dumpall from a cron job, because without 'ident' authentication the dump script prompts for a password. Does anybody have a work around for this problem? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Solaris-and-Ident-tf3371429.html#a9381507 Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
