I am writing some simple batch scripts to login to the DB and do a pg_dump. Also, when I login to do my own SQL tinkering, I'd like not to be asked for a password every time (which, for silly corporate reasons, is quite a convoluted one). So I read up on .pgpass.
FWIW, *IF* you can trust identd in your environment, I find it to be easier to deal with than .pgpass or the like.
