How should I do this?  The current auto-generated pg_hba.conf file read as:
"local all postgres    ident sameuser"
on the first line, and the first line also after the # TYPE DATABASE....METHOD line.


Do you mean I should change the "ident sameuser" at the end to "trust"?

Should I login by this way from command line?

THANK YOU!!
