I'm using md5 in pg_hba.conf. That is the method, no?
I'm writing a milter application which instantiates a private resource
for each thread upon thread startup. I have priv->conn which I
establish as priv->conn=PQconnectdb(connstr), connstr is const char
*connstr="host=10.0.0.5 dbname=bmilter user=username password=password";
It segfaults depending on it's mood but it tends to happen about 50-70%
of the time. I switched to PQsetdbLogin() which has worked perfectly.
I don't really want to use that however, I would much prefer using my
connstr.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
David

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
