Summary: Does not pick up default username
Initial Comment:
To use ODBC with Kerberos authentication, the connection needs to pick up the current username from the logged in user
anduse that for authentication. For normal libpq connections, this works fine if you just skip specifying the username
completely.For ODBC connection, it crashes. Example vbscript:
set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "Driver={PostgreSQL UNICODE};DATABASE=admin;SERVER=server.domain.se"
This gives me the error:
H:\t2.vbs(2, 1) Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers: Operation was canceled.
If I specify the username (mha) with "uid=mha", it works.
A workaround is possible when connectingl ike above, because I can have my vbscript determine the userid and pass it
along.But it's not possible with software using a global DSN that expect integrated login to work the same way as for
SQLServer.

Message:
I think you should be able to reproduce the same problem
when using trust authentication. Just make sure you never
specify a username in the script connecting.
Log file for a run is attached. In order to enable logging,
I created a DSN called "pgtest" with:
data source: pgtest
description: <blank>
database: postgres
sslmode: prefer
server: my.server.domain
port: 5432
user name: <blank>
password: <blank>
All other options are per default.

Message:
I have no kerberos here. So I can't reproduce the problem.
I need you attach mylog output for unsuccessful login.
