Hi, all! I'm not finding anything on the web about this, so I'm hoping someone here can help.
I'm trying to use dbiproxy with PostgreSQL. I'm running Debian Sarge/i386, and the Perl, DBI, and PostgreSQL that come with it. (Perl 5.8.4, DBI 1.46, PostgreSQL 7.4.7) My test script looks like this: use DBI; my $dsn = "DBI:Pg:dbname=decks"; my $proxy = "hostname=goliath;port=3333"; my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:Proxy:$proxy;dsn=$dsn", 'mason', 'test'); $dbh and $dbh->disconnect(); print "Connecting directly.\n"; $dbh = DBI->connect("$dsn", "mason", "test"); $dbh and $dbh->disconnect(); I can connect to the database using $dsn directly, and I can connect using psql, but dbiproxy logs this when I try to connect using it: Sep 9 16:50:27 goliath DBI::ProxyServer[17108]: Error while connecting to DBI:P g:dbname=decks as mason: DBI::ProxyServer connect('dbname=decks','mason',...) failed: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "mason" [err=1,state=S1000 ] at /usr/bin/dbiproxy line 24 Sep 9 16:50:27 goliath DBI::ProxyServer[17108]: Refusing client Can someone suggest to me what's happening to cause this? FWIW, I've got identd running through inetd, in case that's what it wanted. Here's my proxy config: { facility => 'daemon', pidfile => '/tmp/dbiproxy.pid', user => 'nobody', group => 'nogroup', localport => '3333', mode => 'fork', clients => [ { mask => '.*', accept => 1, users => [ 'mason' ] } ] } Thanks in advance for clues! -- Mason Loring Bliss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://blisses.org/ All which is forgotten need not necessarily be dead...
