I am trying to set up IDENT authentication for Tomcat 5 on my Fedora
Core 2 system.  I've added the appropriate line to pg_hba.conf:

host    tomcat4 tomcat4 127.0.0.1       255.255.255.255 ident   sameuser

This works as expected from a console:


that's because you're connecting via tcp/ip sockets from Tomcat and unix domain sockets from psql.

He's passing '-h localhost' to psql so it should be using TCP/IP.
