Hi there, This is a password for PostgreSQL - or at least, the user under which you're connecting to the PostgreSQL server. When you're first adding the server to pgAdmin, there's an option to specify the password (assuming you're using password authentication, and not another mechanism - you specify that at initial-connection time too). For a server that's already listed in the tree view in pgAdmin, you can have it forget whatever password you may already have entered and saved - right-click on the server in the tree-view, and if pgAdmin has saved a password then there'll be a option, "Clear saved password". Click this, and then you can re-enter the password on next connection.
