Hi Tom,
Thanks for your comment/advice. It is an improvement, but...
I adjusted the line in pg_hba.conf to:
host all donder 172.16.XX.XX/32 ldap ldap://amarula.egcrc.org
and what I get as user donder is:
-bash-3.00$ psql canon
Password:
psql: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "donder"
In the serverlog file, I get:
FATAL: password authentication failed for user "donder"
I need a working ldap example for pg_hba.conf desparately.
Can somebody please help?
Also, if somebody can explain what the example on page 352 of 8.2.1
manual:
ldap://ldap.example.net/dc=example,dc=net;EXAMPLE\
means, I would appreciate it greatly.
Regards,
Tena Sakai

I know nothing about ldap, but this is clearly not a correct host line:
you forgot the address field(s), and that last bit should be an option
not the auth method name. I would imagine that what you need is
something like
host all donder 192.168.1.0/24 ldap ldap://amarula.egcrc.orgsent
(adjust address to suit, of course)
