Thanks.

The permission is 0600 on Fedora. But must the file (~/.pgpass) be owned by postgres? Also what could explain the reason why it is not working on Windows XP where permission is not checked!

I am running version 8.0.3 that is shipped with Fedora Core 4.

The content of both ~/.pgpass and pgpass.conf is:

192.168.0.253:5432:hms:xxxxxx

Best regards.
