Re: pgsql password when FreeBSD boots -- what's

Actually the fact that a pg client finds it needs a password is usually

e.g. if the client gets connected and can exit, assume db is up
if the client finds it needs a password to fully connect, assume db is up.
If there is no response, assume db is down.
