I am having trouble connecting php(5.1.1) and postgresql(8.1) running on
Ubuntu Breezy. Both run fine separately. I created a user (tempuser) and
a database (tempdb).  If I run psql -l it shows the database "tempdb"
with the username "tempuser".  But I get the following error using
pg_connect:

Warning: pg_connect() [function.pg-connect]: Unable to connect to
PostgreSQL server: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user
"tempuser" in /var/www/db_connect.php on line 14

You are using "ident" authentication in your pg_hba.conf file. You probably don't want this. Start with trust if you are connecting locally, then turn passwords on once you are happy you can connect.
