Re: pg_hba.conf problems with Postgresql 7.0.2

    Hi guys, i have discovered my stupid error. When PostgreSQL 7 is
installed it creates a new directory called data in /var/lib/pgsql, but
the installation does not erase old configuration files so i edited the
old pg_hba.conf instead of the new one in data. I hope this information
will be useful to you. Bye!!
