Problem: Some users (scripts actually) try to connect to a DB who's name is derived from environmental variables. The DB doesn't exist (yet), and I want them to connect to a different DB for the time being. Is there a way to define an alias for the existing DB that = the db name that doesn't exist? Or is there a way to have PG fail over to a default DB should a DB connect fail? I can implement the fail over outside PG, but those users who make a direct connect to the DB don't use that code.
Thanks in Advance
