RE: [INTERFACES] JDBC from remote

Even though you are using trust, are you supplying a password to the
driver?

Passing null or "" as a password doesn't work. As long as the password
exists (doesn't have to be correct for trust authentication) it should
work.

Well... I have the line:

host         all        0.0.0.0       0.0.0.0           trust

in the pg_hba.conf file...

But I still can't seem to get remote authentication..

Any ideas?
