I've used Postgres on Linux for several years, and I have relied on the 'ident' authentication method for system administration and other tasks. Now I need to get a postgres database up and running on Solaris. The problem is that 'ident' authentication is not supported on Solaris. I can't figure out how to do simple things, such as running pg_dumpall from a cron job, because without 'ident' authentication the dump script prompts for a password.
Does anybody have a work around for this problem? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Solaris-and-Ident-tf3371429.html#a9381507 Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
