Hi,
I've just downloaded 7.2.1 and I'm trying to use MD5 authentication. If I
understand clearly,
1) pg_hba.conf should contain 2 rows with
local all md5
host all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 md5
2) I should restart my postmaster with "kill -HUP _pidno_", OK, I did it,
3) I should login now with an MD5 password:
$ psql -u template1
User name: postgres
Password: *******************************
Here I entered the MD5 hashed password. I got
psql: FATAL 1: Password authentication failed for user "postgres"
However, if I enter the "clear text", unhashed password, I can enter the
database.
What did I do wrong? TIA, Zoltan
