Hi Simon,

It sounds like the pg_hba.conf file on your server is set to trust any connections from your host. For reference, pgAdmin doesn't bypass any PostgreSQL security, so any issues will definately be at that end (and pg7.2 is certainly not that broken!).

Regards, Dave.

Hi,

I'm running postgresql 7.2 on a RedHat 8 linux box. Using pgadmin2 version 1.4.9 to access. Worryingly I can successfully access using a valid account with ANY password. I do have passwords configured on the user accounts. Am I missing something?
