> host all 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 password I was able to get the connection when I made the entry host all 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.255 trust However on changing the 'trust' to 'password' I get a password authentication failure-- I tried by using a blank passwd and then changed the password of the user postgres & tried that. Both failed. Not sure why I shouldn't leave the AUTH_TYPE to 'trust' -- bad security maybe?? > -----Original Message----- > From: Vikram Khurana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 26 August 2002 21:24 > To: Dave Page > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [pgadmin-support] VMWare connection > > > > try setting it to password instead of ident. > > I guess ident means the same password as the users, correct? > No. Ident means use an ident server. > But I don't understand your statement above at all.... > > Can you please explain a little more. Replace the word ident with the word password. You want a line like: host all 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 password You'll need to adjust the ip/subnet mask as approriate.
