I would like to use password authentication for most users, but LDAP authentication for the remaining ones users,
There will be no overlap of login names.

I do not really want to create an entry in the pg_hba.conf file for each login. What I would like is
something like


host    all     all             142.104.0.0/24        MD5
host    all     all             142.104.0.0/24        ldap...

in hopes that if the account can be authenticated by MD5 local postgresql accounts, then it is,
otherwise it will be authenticated by ldap.

Is this type of setup possible?

Evan Rempel.
