You're likely logging in from the same machine and pg_hba.conf is set to ident authentication. Change your pg_hba.conf back to ident or trust, and run this command: alter user postgres set password='password'; changing 'password' of course Then change pg_hba.conf to md5 authentication. -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
