Hello

I'm running postgres-6.4.2 on one machine, and want to access it from
another, but get the error message

% psql -h vsop rndprojectdb

Connection to database 'rndprojectdb' failed.
User authentication failed

vsop is remote host
rndprojectdb is database

(above command run as user postgres, database rndprojectdb owned by user
postgres.)

I have edited the /usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf with:

local all trust
host all 10.123.10.0 255.255.255.255 trust
host all 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.255 trust

I know it's using the correct port 5432, and that the postmaster is
listening, and reading pg_hba.conf.

(running on Irix 6.2)

Any help would be appreciated.............thanks

Jean
