Hi Kevin, Thank you for your reply. I will do so at a quiet hour soon and let you know what happens.
The reason why I used restart (instead of reload) is I read in the manual that after I edit pg_hba.conf (section after "# Put your actual configuration here" line), I needed to restart, not reload. Of course, now that I am looking for such section of the manual, I cannot find it. Maybe I just daydreamed it...

If there's a service script in /etc/init.d/ (perhaps /etc/init.d/postgresql) you probably should have used that. A restart through that might get you back to where you want to be. -Kevin
