How is it anonymous if you require his password?

I meant "anonymous" in the same spirit as "anonymous FTP", which often
requests an e-mail address as password. I realize that often it is
possible for users to enter anything in response to this request, but
it is still helpful with users who choose to satisfy the request.

There's a couple ... have a search on Amazon for PpostgreSQL

That was my initial approach, and I ended up with a book that did not
answer the questions I just posted. Hence I thought I would ask those
with more knowledge for some specific recommendations.
