#
# PostgreSQL HOST-BASED ACCESS (HBA) CONTROL FILE
#
#
# This file controls:
# o which hosts are allowed to connect
# o how users are authenticated on each host
# o databases accessible by each host
#
# It is read on postmaster startup and when the postmaster receives a SIGHUP.
# If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the postmaster
# for the changes to take effect.
#
# Each line is a new record. Records cannot be continued across multiple
# lines. Comments begin with # and continue to the end of the line.
# Blank lines are ignored. A record consists of tokens separated by
# multiple spaces or tabs.
#
# The first token of a record indicates its type. The remainder of the
# record is interpreted based on its type.
#
# Record Types
# ============
#
# There are three types of records:
# o host
# o hostssl
# o local
#
# host
# ----
#
# This record identifies the networked hosts that are permitted to connect
# via IP connections.
#
# Format:
#
# host DBNAME IP_ADDRESS ADDRESS_MASK AUTH_TYPE [AUTH_ARGUMENT]
#
# DBNAME can be:
# o the name of a PostgreSQL database
# o "all" to indicate all databases
# o "sameuser" to allow access only to databases with the same
# name as the connecting user
#
# IP_ADDRESS and ADDRESS_MASK are standard dotted decimal IP address and
# mask values. IP addresses can only be specified numerically, not as
# domain or host names.
#
# AUTH_TYPE and AUTH_ARGUMENT are described below.
#
# There can be multiple "host" records, possibly with overlapping sets of
# host addresses. The postmaster finds the first entry that matches the
# connecting host IP address and the requested database name. If no entry
# matches the database/hostname combination, the connection is rejected.
#
#
# hostssl
# -------
#
# The format of this record is identical to "host".
#
# This record identifies a set of network hosts that are permitted to
# connect to databases over secure SSL IP connections. Note that a "host"
# record will also allow SSL connections. "hostssl" forces these
# hosts to use *only* SSL-secured connections.
#
# This keyword is only available if the server was compiled with SSL
# support enabled.
#
#
# local
# -----
#
# This record identifies the authentication to use when connecting to
# the server via a local UNIX domain socket. UNIX-socket connections are
# allowed only if this record type appears.
#
# Format:
# local DBNAME AUTH_TYPE [AUTH_ARGUMENT]
#
# This format is identical to the "host" record type except the IP_ADDRESS
# and ADDRESS_MASK fields are omitted.
#
# As with "host" records, the first "local" record matching the requested
# database name is used.
#
#
#
# Authentication Types (AUTH_TYPE)
# ================================
#
# AUTH_TYPE indicates the method used to authenticate users. The username
# is specified in the connection request. A different AUTH_TYPE can be
# specified for each record in the file.
#
# trust: No authentication is done. Any valid username is accepted,
# including the PostgreSQL superuser. This option should
# be used only for hosts where all users are trusted.
#
# password: Authentication is done by matching a password supplied
# in clear by the host. If no AUTH_ARGUMENT is used, the
# password is compared with the user's entry in the
# pg_shadow table.
#
# If AUTH_ARGUMENT is specified, the username is looked up
# in that file in the $PGDATA directory. If the username
# exists but there is no password, the password is looked
# up in pg_shadow. If a password exists in the file, it is
# it used instead. These secondary files allow fine-grained
# control over who can access which databases and whether
# a non-default passwords are required. The same file can be
# used in multiple records for easier administration.
# Password files can be maintained with the pg_passwd(1)
# utility. Remember, these passwords override pg_shadow
# passwords.
#
# md5: Same as "password", but authentication is done by
# encrypting the password sent over the network. This is
# always preferable to "password" except for old clients
# that don't support it. Also, md5 can use usernames stored
# in secondary password files but not secondary passwords.
#
# crypt: Same as "md5", but uses crypt for pre-7.2 clients. You can
# not store encrypted passwords if you use this option.
#
# ident: For TCP/IP connections, authentication is done by contacting
# the ident server on the client host. (CAUTION: this is only
# as secure as the client machine!) On machines that support
# SO_PEERCRED or SCM_CREDS socket requests, this method also
# works for local Unix-domain connections. AUTH_ARGUMENT is
# required: it determines how to map remote user names to
# Postgres user names. The AUTH_ARGUMENT is a map name found
# in the $PGDATA/pg_ident.conf file. The connection is accepted
# if that file contains an entry for this map name with the
# ident-supplied username and the requested Postgres username.
# The special map name "sameuser" indicates an implied map
# (not in pg_ident.conf) that maps each ident username to the
# identical PostgreSQL username.
#
# krb4: Kerberos V4 authentication is used. Allowed only for
# TCP/IP connections, not for local UNIX-domain sockets.
#
# krb5: Kerberos V5 authentication is used. Allowed only for
# TCP/IP connections, not for local UNIX-domain sockets.
#
# reject: Reject the connection. This is used to reject certain hosts
# that are part of a network specified later in the file.
# To be effective, "reject" must appear before the later
# entries.
#
#
#
# Examples
# ========
#
#
# Allow any user on the local system to connect to any database under any
# username using Unix-domain sockets (the default for local connections):
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# local all trust
#
# The same using IP connections on the same machine:
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# host all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
#
# Allow any user from any host with IP address 192.168.93.x to
# connect to database "template1" as the same username that ident reports
# for the connection (typically his Unix username):
#
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# host template1 192.168.93.0 255.255.255.0 ident sameuser
#
# Allow a user from host 192.168.12.10 to connect to database "template1"
# if the user's password in pg_shadow is correctly supplied:
#
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# host template1 192.168.12.10 255.255.255.255 md5
#
# In the absence of preceding "host" lines, these two lines will reject
# all connection from 192.168.54.1 (since that entry will be matched
# first), but allow Kerberos V5-validated connections from anywhere else
# on the Internet. The zero mask means that no bits of the host IP address
# are considered, so it matches any host:
#
#
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# host all 192.168.54.1 255.255.255.255 reject
# host all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 krb5
#
# Allow users from 192.168.x.x hosts to connect to any database if they
# pass the ident check. For example, if ident says the user is "james" and
# he requests to connect as PostgreSQL user "guest", the connection is
# allowed if there is an entry in $PGDATA/pg_ident.conf with map name
# "phoenix" that says "james" is allowed to connect as "guest":
#
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
# host all 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 ident phoenix
#
# See $PGDATA/pg_ident.conf for more information on Ident maps.
#
# Put your actual configuration here
# ==================================
#
# This default configuration allows any local user to connect with any
# PostgreSQL username, over either UNIX domain sockets or IP:
#
# If you want to allow non-local connections, you will need to add more
# "host" records. Also, remember IP connections are only enabled if you
# start the postmaster with the -i option.
#
# CAUTION: if you are on a multiple-user machine, the default
# configuration is probably too liberal for you. Change it to use
# something other than "trust" authentication.
#
# TYPE DATABASE IP_ADDRESS MASK AUTH_TYPE AUTH_ARGUMENT
local all trust
host all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust
