I'll note that the -U option doesn't appear to do anything relevant either, but at least it doesn't error unnecessarily: handyrep@john:~/handyrep$ pg_isready -h john -p 5432 -U no_such_user john:5432 - accepting connections -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
