I'm using 7.4 before we upgrade.
pg_dumpall worked fine on working cluster.
I Imported it all into a virgin install of 7.4 on a different box.
Used pg_ctl to restart that box after the import. All went fine.
On trying to connect as a valid user on that database I get:
DATE TIME FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "username"
psql FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "username"
On that box pg_hba.conf has...
# TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD
local all all ident sameuser
local all all trust
# IPv4-style local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 md5
# IPv6-style local connections:
host all all ::1 ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff md5
I thought local would allow me w/ 'all'.
None of the PG____ environment variables are set.
I thought they would be c/o the import all.
Where should I make them permanent?
