Hi,

I was wondering what the different methods of creating a password
accomplish because I created a password for a test user using the
command WITH PASSWORD. I tried testing to see if I could log on without
a password, and it worked. Is there anything else I would need to do to
activate the password authentication? Does the pg_hba.conf file have
anything to do with this? If it does, and I only want to create a
password for this one user, would I specify it in the pg_hba.conf file?

Thanks.

Phuong
