Setting the authentication option to "trust" seems to work but now I'm worried my application won't need a password for users accessing the database. It is a client-server application so I don't know which IP addresses can/can't use it and I'm not relying my application to be on a windows domain/active directory.
I'm thinking the best way to get around it is change the auth option to trust in my installer, create the database, and then automatically set the auth option back to "md5". Not the most elegant solution but it will work for now. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Sullivan Sent: 28 May 2007 07:46 PM To: pgsql-general@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [GENERAL] createdb.exe prompting for password on Vista On Mon, May 28, 2007 at 07:18:47PM +0200, Greg Quinn wrote: > And how would I enable this? > I've tried all the created password options with no luck. You'll need to look at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/client-authentication.html. Sorry, I know nothing about Windows, so if there's some Windows-specific tricks, you may need to know that.
