I'm trying get remote management of postrgesql on Ubuntu 5.10 set up.

I am hoping to set up authentication in pg_hba.conf as

host all all 192.168.0.0/0 md5

but I wasn't successful. When I relaxed it to:

host all all 192.168.0.0/0 password

everything worked fine.

Can someone let me know how to configure pgAdmin so that it sends the
password md5 encrypted?

Thanks,

Patrick Smith
