First off, that's a terrible idea from a security perspective. Setting that aside, I believe that this was changed from an enforced requirement to a strong recommendation somewhere around 8.2. Since a bump in number after the first decimal point is a new release in PostgreSQL, telling us you have "pgsql8" means you could have any of five different major releases (8.0 to 8.4). http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning Since you seem to be running on 8.0 or 8.1 on Windows, you are probably heading into a lot more trouble if you don't find a more recent version to use: http://www.postgresql.org/about/news.865 http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy In any event, it should be clear to you from reading the messages you included in your post that this is not a bug, so the pgsql-bugs list is not the right place to post. Please look over the descriptions of the lists and try to pick the appropriate one for future posts. http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/ -Kevin
