Hi all, I am using a postgres database, and want to set a password for the account. The default user name is 'postgres' and in order to set a password, I did an alter user as below, alter user postgres with password 'mypwd'; The command goes through fine, but the next time I log into postgres using the command, psql mydb postgres it logs in, and doesnt ask me for a password at all. If I issue a command like, psql mydb postgres mypwd it says, extra argument!!! I have checked the pg_shadow table, and it looks like the password has been set. I also have a trust entry for the database server that I am accessing it through, in the pg_hba.conf file. Any suggestions to get around this problem? Thanks! George
