I have yet to figure out how to access a postgres server that requires
passwords. I can log onto it with PG adminIII just fine but not using JDBC.
Here is my connect statement
m_sqlConnection = DriverManager.getConnection(s_SQLConnect,
s_SQLUser,"PASSWORD");
I have tried clear text, md5, and encrypted.
Does JDBC detect what type of password is required and then sends it?
Or do I have to specify it somewhere?

David,

I use passwords all the time,

Can you create a small test case which fails ?

I use md5 in pg_hba.conf.

The JDBC-Driver seems to know, what to send, as I use only
the statement you have given above to get a connection.

Creating a user with

CREATE USER user1 WITH PASSWORD 'secret';

gives a user1 with an encrypted password, that is
md5 encrypted by default.
