Accessing DB of non-user name

Hello list,

I'm trying PostgreSQL having previous experience with MySQL.

I have got the following problem:
I want to allow database access to a user (username1) to a database with a name different to the same user (which may or not be created by such user).
But I do not manage.
I have the following entries in pg_hba.conf:

host sameuser 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 md5
host all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 md5 admins

Allowing TCP/IP access restricted to localhost to users with same database name and
allowing TC/IP access to all databases by superusers (admin group).

Anyway I cannot manage one user: user1 may access database user2, f.instance

I tried

host user2 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 user1group -> whre user1group refers to pg_ident map.

On the other hand when I add this line (wherever upper or lower to 2 previous ones) I cannot access user2 database thru' superusers.

When 'host all' line is substituted by an equivalent local all md5 admins -> I haven't got the last problem, but I cannot connect to user2 thu' user1 yet.

I tried grant tables and other objects if present with no result.

What am I missing?

Thanks!
