Ident maps other than sameuser are defined in the file pg_ident.conf in
the data directory, which contains lines of the general form:

map-name ident-username database-username

So you might require to have appropriate entries in pg_ident.conf file.

Rather you can also change the authentication method to trust or password
or md5.
