Hi
I'm trialling the software and like it so far. I'm running it on a work laptop and the periodic security tests picked up that postgress isnt password protected.
I have set a password in HEM for postgres but note the postgres file was changed to "trust". I suspect this is driving the "not password protected" result. I tried changing "trust" back to mp5 (or whatever is it) but this didn't seem to fix it.
I've tried searching on Postgres help to see how to set passwords but can't figure it out.
In the meantime I ended up deleting HEM and postgres to avoid the security flag but that won't really be workable long term to have to redownload the product and import hand histories each time i want to use it. I could just put it on another machine I know but assuming I don't want to do that, is there guidance on how to force a real password into postgres?
