I never hook up Postgres so that the service talks to the outside world, so this is just a guess.
Did you format your submitted password using md5digest() when you changed from "trust" to "md5"? (You at least know you are talking to Postgres (the FATAL: response looks like a Postgres response). Is "glen" set up as a user with a password within the Postgres database? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/auth-methods.html#AUTH-PASSWORD Hope that is of some help.
