That's because PSQL by default uses a unix socket and your previous email showed you were using a network socket for PGADMIN. Which is fine, except that the latter has to use the IDENT network service to figure out who you are. If PSQL is working and PGADMIN is not, I would suspect that you don't have a working identd running yet. Either install one, eg apt-get install pidentd or tell pgadmin3 to use a unix socket (see list archives under my name). If you're running Debian Stable, you need to use custom built .deb files. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
