Validating User
Started by ShepherdHill DB Subscriptionsover 20 years ago2 messagesgeneral
Hi,
Please as a superuser how would I obtain an equivalent of this query:
SELECT * FROM pg_shadow WHERE usename='userid' AND md5(passwd)='passwd'
I browse the content of the pg_shadow and the passwd field shows
something like md5...
All I am after is to validate a user against pg_shadow table in version
8.0.4.
Cheers.
Olu

For what purpose?
