Re: [ADMIN] password authentication with external passwd file

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I would like to know first, if I'm mistaken, or if external passwd files are now specified in some other way, or must be enabled at compile time or something like that; ie, am I doing something wrong? The 7.3 Release Notes have the following items

[ADMIN] password authentication with external passwd file

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello all. I am currently running postgresql-7.2, and I have my pg_hba.conf configured to use password authentication with external passwd files. eg: pg_hba.conf: local db1 all password db1.pwd host db1 all 127.0.0.1 255.
