We have a number of automated jobs that connect to our pgsql DB and
I'm wondering what others are doing for authentication and securing
passwords. It's easy enough to hardcode a password, but is there
something specific to pgsql, perhaps, that would be a better
solution?
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/libpq-pgpass.html may
do the trick.
ident authentication can be a good alternative for scheduled jobs
running
on the same machine as the database too.
Cheers,
Steve
