Hi,

When I installed the redhat database 2.1,I have chosen
 to perform all the following tasks.  

Start Red Hat Database now.
Configure Red Hat Database to start at system
start-up. 
Run the regression tests.

All of these tasks have completed successfully.

Then I started the graphical tool DataBase
Administrator and followed the instructions in your
tutorial,I fill the blanks with "tutorial","Unix
Domain Socket","/tmp","5432".

As for the user name and pasword,No matter what I have
provided ,such as postgres or other username and
password I have created by command line,when I clicked
the tutorial icon,the right pane showed that"status
Not Connected Reason:Fatal 1:IDENT authenticatin
failed for user "postgres"or other name I have
created.

But in fact the redhat database server is
running.Because when I use postgres or the name I have
created to issue command createdb ***,the response is
correct---CREATE DATABASE. 

Can you help me out?
