Re: newbie Administrator

Hello Scott,

Hm. Having no pg_hba.conf file definitely sounds odd.

I'd try this command while logged in via psql:

SHOW hba_file;

The output should show you the path to the pg_hba.conf file, which you
can then edit to limit the connections to the database.

Hope that helps. =)
