Hey,
getting back to this PostgreSQL config:
I tried to replace "local all all trust" by "local health tryton trust"
on openSUSE and "local health gnuhealth trust" on Ubuntu/Debian and it
works. As it's more precise / secure I suggest to change it in the
documentation (regarding wikibooks installation chapter and openSUSE
specific installation instructions).
Besides I tested to have PostgreSQL on another system which is not part
of the documentation yet. I could work on this as well. Until here I got
it running but not yet fulfilling best practices I think.
Before editing wikibooks I would like to know if there is already work
in progress for a HMIS documentation in RST like for MyGNUHealth /
Thalamus?
In general having an up to date documentation with 4.0 would be nice as
there are some very old parts like mentionning HMIS version 3.0 or even
Python2.
Best
Gerald

Hey,
I remember someone questionning the PostgreSQL connection method
during the GNU Health Con because pretty much everywhere in
documentations "local all trust" is advised.
Is it really used like this for productive settings?
I feel OK with it, as long as it's restricted to localhost, the server
dedicated to GH. It's the default method in systems such as FreeBSD
and Arch.
Moreover, you still need a validated OS & Postgres user to login.
Of course, we can document other postgres authentication methods and
let the admin decide which one to use.
All the best
Luis
