Does anyone know how I can test ident?
I'd try sniffing the IP traffic to and from it with a packet sniffer
and/or tracing the daemon's system calls with strace. Manually invoking
the daemon isn't going to prove a lot, you want to watch its reaction
to Postgres.
Thanks for your suggestion. I'm new to the concept of packet sniffing
and tracing. Can you suggest where I should go or what I should read to
better understand this?
I believe some flavors of identd have debug tracing options, too
... check the man page ...
Too bad no one else has reported this and already found an answer.
Maybe I should move to md5 authentication, however I wanted to avoid
having to type passwords.
Thanks,
