Login Problems.

Hello,


I have my PostgreSQL configured as follows:

/usr/bin/postmaster
-p 5432
-D /var/lib/pgsql/data
-B 64
-b /usr/bin/postgres
-i
-N 32


and the pg_hba.conf file has the following lines in it:

local        all         crypt
host         all         127.0.0.1     255.255.255.255     crypt


Now when I try to connect to a database (locally) using psql I get the
following:


psql: Password authentication failed for user 'postgres'


what am I missing here?  ;-)

Thanks in advance.



Cheers,



John Clark
