Is there any way to remove a password, specifically from the postgres user? I installed the 8.0 Windows version via the installer, and it forces you to set a password. I'd like to reset this so that there is no password (basically, to match the setup on several other machines - and no, for a number of reasons it's not feasible to just set passwords on those other machines).
I know about the alter user command, but I haven't seen a way to use it to remove a password. I've tried: alter user postgres with password ''; alter user postgres with password null; The first one doesn't work and the second returns an error. Does anyone know whether this is possible? Thanks.
