You don't even know if the local database is where the user is intending to connect to. Moreover this presupposes some rather obsolete ideas about what connection parameters might need to be given on the command line. Something that might be more useful is to see if there's a connection service file http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/libpq-pgservice.html and offer the names of service entries in it. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
