Both have PGHOST set.   gd07 has a .pgpass, but psgdba does not.   Does it still need a .pgpass even if it is already ‘trust’?
Thanks.

Hi,

Question on pg_hba.conf.  I have these entries:

host    all             psgdba           localhost           trust
host    all             psgdba           127.0.0.1/32<http://127.0.0.1/32>            trust
host    all             gd07           localhost                trust
host    all             gd07            127.0.0.1/32<http://127.0.0.1/32>           trust


Can you post the whole of pg_hba.conf file?

You might have some other entry that is taking precedence.


Command to logon to Postgres:
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/psql -d postgres

If you don't have PGHOST set then most likely you are not going over a tcp connection (which is what host entries in pg_hba are used for). Instead the local entries of pg_hba are taking effect.


If I am logged on ‘gd07’  at the server , it lets me log-on to Postgres without prompting for password

do you have a *.pgpass* file in the home directory?

If I am logged on as ‘psgdba’, it prompts for password.
As you can see, both have ‘trust’, but ‘gd07’ is the instance owner.

Why does ‘psgdba’ prompts?  What I am missing?
Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
Maria
