how does postgres handle invalid pgpass entries?

1 New Member
Hi,

What happens if we write the invalid entries to the pgpass file ?
correct format is hostname:port:d atabase:usernam e:password which is a 5-tuple entry.
what if we give less/more number of fields to the pgpass file.?
what if we give wrong information to the pgpass entry ?

Does it just ignore the entry and prompt user to enter password manually ? or does it fail to connect to DB and stop there itself ?

How does Postgres handle pgpass internally ??

Thanks,

Does anybody have a nice method of forcing a user to enter a value into a form using asp? I think the best is to have a popup when they hit submit that will stay on the same page and then just alert the user to enter something in so and so text box. Thanks in advance
