RE: md5 and trust and pg_hba.conf

Not a problem. You're always free to remove or obscure private info when posting to a public list, especially things
likeIP addresses. We just recommend leaving a note of that in case "something else here" is actually important.
 

So you could say:

Here's pg_hba.conf (names have been changed to protect the innocent):

#stuff here for specific other databases I'm not trying to connect to
host  all  all    ip-of-the-server/32  md5
host  all  user1  ip-of-the-server/32  trust
host  all  user1  all                  md5
host  all  user2  ip-of-the-server/32  trust
host  all  user2  all                  md5


Then if we think the problem is in the redacted section we can suggest what to look for in there.
