Re: Setting up security for development

I'm no expert, but I believe the format of your pg_hba.conf is wrong.

The error is this
host all all 192.168.1.0/32 255.255.255.0 trust

I think you want
192.168.1.0/24 OR
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

I don't know if specifying both would work.
Also /32 means that all four groups of numbers must match, so you can
only connect from the exact IP address 192.168.1.0.
/8 means you can connect from 192.anything
/16 means 192.168.anything
/24 means 192.168.1.anything
/32 means 192.168.1.0 exact match
