This is going to depend on how you have set up authentication on the server (the Linux box might not need any password) and how you provide a password from your client. See "The password file" in chapter 30 of the manuals for details on how to store a password in a (secured - make sure this is true!) file. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
