Thanks but it is still prompting for a password.

Does your pg_hba.conf require a password?

I created a user with a password. That newly created user now have tables and indexes. I want to ALTER that user to exclude the password.
How is this accomplished without dropping and recreating the users?


Never tried to go backwards before but:

alter user foo with encrypted password '';

But as I look at pg_shadow there is still a hash...

You could do:

update pg_shadow set passwd = '' where usename = 'foo';
