We have postgreSQL 8.3.8 installed on a windows 8 server (64 bit).
We want to be able to run a nightly backup using the pg_dump command.
Unfortunately, even with the pg_hba.conf fix of adding host postgres … trust,
It still asks for a password.
1. Is this a 64bit issue? If the server was 32bit, would it not ask for a password?
2. Is there a way of running a dos script that would run the pg_dump providing a password when prompted?
3. Is there a way of running the pg_dump with a user that doesn't have a password?
Thanks
