Dear,

I'm running postgresql 7.3.2, the pg_hba.conf file :

# TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD

local all all trust
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
host all all 172.16.0.131 255.255.255.255
password passwd

The passwd file in the data directory :

[root(at)shadow data]# grep mey2 passwd
mey2:SL/.8laZSbQ1Q

Check if the given password is correct :

[root(at)shadow data]# perl -e "print crypt("jefke","SL")"
SL/.8laZSbQ1Q

When connecting to this server with ODBC (username mey2 password jefke) I
get the message :

An error has occured ...
Number: -2147217843
Description: FATAL: Password authentication failed for user mey2

I'm getting the same message if i try another application (access) and use
an ODBC link

It was working till version 7.2.3 ....

Kind regards

Patrick Meylemans
