Actually you don't need to put an entry for each users ip. The
pg_hba.conf allows you to accept a range of IP address that your users
client computers are assigned.

The quickest way to properly configure your pg_hba.conf file would be
to spend about ten minutes reading the online documentation:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/auth-pg-hba-conf.html

Also notice the examples under Example 19-1. Example pg_hba.conf entries.

Reply back with any problems that you encounter after trying some of
the examples. A focused question is much more easy answer than
general one.
