Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Virus-Scanned: Maia Mailguard 1.0.1 X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-1.91 tagged_above=-5 required=5 tests=BAYES_00=-1.9, T_RP_MATCHES_RCVD=-0.01 X-Spam-Level: X-Archive-Number: 201105/27 X-Sequence-Number: 6702 Hello, according to section 17.8.1 of the docs, I have added "clientcert" to a hostssl line in my pg_hba.conf file, but upon restart of the server, I'm getting the following error and the server fails to start up: LOG: invalid authentication method "clientcert" CONTEXT: line 82 of configuration file "/var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data/pg_hba.conf" FATAL: could not load pg_hba.conf Changing the "clientcert" to "cert" seems to work. So does this mean the documentation is incorrect?
