Re: Problem with security

Problem with securitypg_hba.conf in the database directory has the login
permissions.

Sounds like you have "trust" permissions, and you want "password". Should be
pretty self-explanatory once you open that file.

Maybe this is an easy one but,


I've created a user called 'ebstrack' and they own a database called
'ebs_dd'.



When I'm on a different server than the database server, and I do this at a
unix prompt:



$> psql ebs_dd -U ebstrack --host=archer




It logs me in without a password, and I am able to SELECT off the tables.



Any idea on how to prevent this?



Thanks!
