Hi all,
I've got a database on a server that can be accessed thru the user wwwrun with
no password. Now I'd like to copy it on my laptop, so I created the wwwrun
(with no password) and thru pg_dump and pg_restore I copied the database on
the laptop. The problem is that on the latter I'm unable to log as wwwrun, I
got:
[luca(at)fluca:~]$ psql -U wwwrun
psql: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "wwwrun"

What should I change on my laptop to get the database working?

Thanks,
Luca
