Re: jdbc pg_hba.conf error

I used the example in the following URL

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/client-authentication.html

Thanks for the catch on "host" instead of "local". I made that change,
and reloaded pgsql.. But I still get the same error. I can connect to
the database using psql client, but my java connection seems to be failing.
