Hi,

is there a way to make an automated dump with pg_dump when the database
access is password protected?
I'd like to run it from a cron. However, I haven't found a way to
mention the password on the command line (Which is
not the most secure solution, but needed to run it non interactively
from a script).

Thanks for your help!

Raph
