You can use the --password option to prevent it. """ This option is never essential, since psql will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentication. However, psql will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password. In some cases it is worth typing -W to avoid the extra connection attempt. """ In pgAdmin you've saved a password to the profile so the initial attempt uses it. psql doesn't have a similar capability. Though I am unsure whether the use of .pgpass would make any difference here... David J.
