Hi Jagdish,

You shouldn't be listing each IP address in the file. If you want a specific IP address then the netmask should have been 255.255.255.255 to indicate that all octets are required for the address comparison.

For your subnet you should have an IP subnet of 192.168.0.0 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0. This netmask says that only the first three octets should be compared and the last one can be anything.

Trev.

hi friends

i have postgresql running on a linux box
we are around 25 developers in the local network using
it
for development

i wanted to know whether this is a way by which all
the users in my domain would get access to postgres
instead of entering all the ip addreses in the conf
file

some thing like 192.168.0.* 255.255.255.0

instead of specifying all the IP's like this

# TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD

local all all trust
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
host all all 192.168.0.9 255.255.255.0 trust
host all all 192.168.0.4 255.255.255.0 trust



thanks in advance Jagdish Rao
