Subject: Formatting of warning about using ident
Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2019 10:47:40 +0200
Message-ID: <B20006D2-AE84-40CE-97DE-A607A0027EE0@yesql.se> (raw)
The warning about using ident for authorization or access control is using a
<blockquote> with an <attribution> rather than a <warning>, making it look
quite different from the rest of the manual, and less like a warning IMO.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/auth-ident.html
The attached turns it into a <warning> and removes the <attribution> (this was
the sole place used in the docs) to make the docs more consistent for
formatting of warnings.

Subject: [PATCH] doc: Turn ident warning into an actual <warning>
The warning about using ident for authorization or access control was
never turned into a warning, and was the last user of the <attribution>
tag. Turn into a <warning> to make the docs more consistent.

trust the machine running the ident server.
