Hi,
I am trying to connect to postgresql, I am getting an error message
'User
authentication failed #210'. Can you please help me in connecting to the
database.
I have the following installed
Client System
-------------
1. Windows 95
2. PostgreSQL ODBC Driver (PsqlODBC) v 06-40-0006
(Insight Distribution Systems)
3. MS Access 97
Server System
-------------
1. Linux
2. Apache Server
3. PostgreSQL v6_4_2
ODBC Connection Checklist
--------------------------
ODBC Driver Data Source Checks
1.Valid and resolvable hostname.
- entered an valid hostname.
2.Valid port number. (default is 5432)
- port number is set to default.
3.Valid and existing database name.
- database is valid and exists.
4.Valid user name.
- user name is valid and exists.
5.Valid password for the specified user.
(Required if pg_hba.config is set to password
authenticate your client.)
- valid password entered
PostgreSQL Server Checks

the postgres account 'User authentication failed' message
is displayed. )
3.The pg_hba.conf file in $PGPATH/data directory must be configured
to allow your remote host to connect.
- checked pg_hba.conf file this has the following settings
Thankyou,
