Also, if you wish to avoid a full restart of the database, this change would be picked up by a "pg_ctl reload" as well.

Can anyone suggest a way to retrieve/update the postgres root password ?


edit pg_hba.conf so that localhost connections from localhost are trusted maybe like
this:

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          trust

you have to restart, but then you can do an alter user and so can all the other local
users.
