Hi chix,

I'm trying to set up a postgres database for a web app on FC3 and I'm
stuck with the authentication system. I've had a look at pg_hba.conf
and played around with it but I don't seem to be able to get it working.
All I want is to be able to log into a specific database with a specific
username and password from my webapp (which will be running as apache, or
me for testing). Can anyone tell me what entry I need in pg_hba.conf?

Many thanks,

Cass
