Hi,

Could someone confirm that the ability to share the Linux system 
/etc/passwd (or shadow) file with PostgreSQL is definitely defunct?

I've searched the archives and, as far as I can tell, this functionality 
was removed after version 7.2 as "few were using it".  Well we were using 
it and we have thus been stuck with using version 7.2 ever since.  We'd 
really like to finally upgrade to version 8 but would rather not create 
separate passwords for everyone unless we really have no choice.  Is this 
definitely the case?

Thanks,
Ed
