I assume that the postgres database password is the one which is shown

there are no database passwords, thats the password for the postgres
database role/user.
But if I work in the Terminal and change the user "sudo su - postgres"
I have to use my admin password.
sudo expects the password of the user running sudo. this has nothing to
do wih postgres.
That is optional and I sort of doubt the application using one.
You think DaVinci is not using any password … ?
he meant, he doubts DaVinci is using a .pgpass file. The .pgpass
file is another way to pass your passwords to postgres, but its NOT
where postgres stores its passwords, those are stored as hashes in the
pg_catalog.
