It makes more sense to me to overload the database field. When you connect for replication, you're not connecting to any particular database, but to a special walsender mode. Note that 'local' makes sense for replication too; you can connect for replication via a Unix-domain socket. Replication isn't a connection method like host/hostssl/local are. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
