Hi,  
  
 I changed my pg_hba.conf file so that I am authenticating using  
md5 from passwdfile which is a file i created to hold my passwords.  
I didn't add postgres onto that file but when I type psql template1  
under postgres, it prompts me for my password.  i type it in  
and it gives me  
  
 psql: FATAL 1:  Password authentication failed for user "postgres"  
  
 I only have one password for postgres which I used perfectly fine  
to log into linux.  I also use the same password to switch between   
 postgres and other non-root users in the bash shell.  i tried adding postgres  
into the passwdfile file but to no avail.  How do I correct this   
 password bug for postgres so that  I can do stuff as a superuser?  
HELP!  
  
 Alex
