I have a batch file that runs the "pg_dump" command for several databases
that I have in a server. In order to make this process work in an unattended
manner, I set the database passwords in the "pgpass.conf" file but such a
file gets empty after a few days. I work in a Windows Server 2008
environment and the path for the passwords file is
"c:\users\servername\appdata\roaming\postgresql". I got such a path with the
echo %appdata" command from the command prompt. I have been trying to get an
idea of why this is happenning but I do not have a clue until now. I will
very much appreciate any comment.

Respectfully,
Jorge Maldonado
