Any one can connect to any database. If any one knows user
name, he/she connect to db. I want to provide some security that no
one can connect without providing passwords. postgres uses a function
do_coonect() for this perpose. I provide it passwords but it let me
connect to db with any passwords provided. Can any one tell me how to
set passwords for db user. and how can I implement password protection
in psql.
You have to edit your pg_hba.conf and change trust authentication to md5.
