Re: Old version?

Well, that is a definite possibility. When I try to log in to the
8.2.10. instance from another machine on our network, I get an
authentication error. The error log says that authentication is
failing but it doesn't say why. When I originally put this 8.2.10
instance up, I was testing enabling ssl. It's possible that somehow I
got ssl partially configured, and that's confusing postgres. The
reason I scrapped the upgrade to 8.2.10 from 8.2.4 was that I decided
to go to 8.3.6 instead. When I really did enable ssl there, I had
some problems getting the certs to work correctly, but I got ssl
errors in the error log. Anyway, you say that I should be able to get
8.2.10 working if I have to drop back to that. I may just have to
take the ssl bits out and reinstall the whole thing.

Thanks for your help,

Carol
