When I start up psql, if I am not not logged in as the owner of the database, I get the following error message, even if I type the correct password: psql: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "keith" However, when I start up psql logged in as the owner of the database, I get a proper login regardless of whether I type the proper password or not. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
