Hi all, Just wondering if it'd be worthwhile creating a wrapper script people can run which would automatically generate/update the pg_hba.conf/pg_ident.conf files? Just to make it easier for the end-user. Called "bin/pg_auth" or something. Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- "My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit.
