Any one can connect to any database. If any one knows user name, he/she connect to db. I want to provide some security that no one can connect without providing passwords. postgres uses a function do_coonect() for this perpose. I provide it passwords but it let me connect to db with any passwords provided. Can any one tell me how to set passwords for db user. and how can I implement password protection in psql.
You have to edit your pg_hba.conf and change trust authentication to md5.
