Re: Restore

I have tried this a number of times -
psql –U postgres PDW < PDW_June_10.sql. (with and without spaces between U &
postgres and/or < and PDW_June)

Sometimes I am asked for a postgres password, once I was asked for the PDW
password (this makes sense and which I did enter).

When I entered the password it either said password failed or it simply went
back to the root command.

No database information was sent.

pg_hba.conf sets method as md5

I don't know what is meant by your reference to  \1.

Bob

How about the pg_hba.conf setting? Is it set to something like md5?
