Re: user authentications

You can pass it through the pg_connect function.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-connect.php

That would lead to my question concerning this. Which is better,
pg_connect or pg_pconnect? I seem to get better results when I use
pconnect when the db is on a different server than the web server but when
they are both on the same server connect works fine. Any suggestions?

Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone tried to do user authentication already using
the user and password combination of the database users instead of storing
them in a table with username and password? If so, can someone explain
how it was done?
