Excellent - we know what is going on now!


And my pg_hba.conf is

# IPv4-style local connections:
host    all         all         127.0.0.1         255.255.255.255   trust
host    all             all     192.168.0.0     255.255.0.0         trust

trusted for every user.

Ok, what I think has happened is that there is another Pg installation (or another initdb'ed cluster) on this machine that you are accidentally talking to. Try

$ rpm -qa|grep -i postgres

which will spot another software installation, you may just have to
search for files called pg_hba.conf to find another initdb'ed cluster....

This other installation should have a pg_hba.conf that looks something
like :

local   all     all                                ident
host    all     all   127.0.0.1  255.255.255.255   ident

So a bit of detective work is in order :-)
