Hi all
I just had an idea I wanted to run by you all before turning it into a
patch.
People seem to get confused when they get auth errors because they
changed pg_hba.conf but didn't reload.
Should we emit a HINT alongside the main auth error in that case?
Given the amount of confusion that I see around pg_hba.conf from new
users, I figure anything that makes it less confusing might be a good
thing if there aren't other consequences.
Interested in a patch?
