I experimented with this using CVS HEAD, and found that SSL+md5 works
fine as long as I enter the correct password ... but if I give a wrong
password I get
$ psql -h localhost regression
Password:
psql: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "127.0.0.1", user "tgl", database
"regression", SSL off
$
which is at best pretty misleading :-(. I think libpq is probably
mishandling the "bad password" error and concluding that it should fall
back to a non-SSL connection, which the server then rejects. Will look
into it.
As for Jeanna's problem, I don't see any password prompt at all in her
example. I've forgotten the details, but wasn't there a password
prompting problem with 8.0.x on Windows?
