Hi Dave,

Yeah the output of select * from pg_user; returns two values.

1. root (usesysid - 100)with some password in encrypted form
2. postgres (usesysid - 1) with password in encrypted form

What is the password of the user postgres???, so i can try to connect via
this one and check.

Thanks
Regards
Amit

What does "select * from pg_user" return? Is there a user called root in
the result set?
