Sorry if this is a naive question. I'm using postgresql 7.2 on Linux with password authentication. I wish to issue a vaccumdb command every night via crontab. The problem is that vacuumdb always prompts for a password. How can I pass the password to vacuumdb without having to manually type it?

Sorry. Problem solved.


export PGPASSWORD=<passwd>

Kind regards,
