Greetings,

Under:

http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/runtime-config-file-locations.html

We have:

ident_file (string)

Specifies the configuration file for ident authentication
(customarily called pg_ident.conf). This parameter can only be set
at server start.

That's not really accurate anymore, is it? It's referring to the
username maps now, which are used for Ident, GSSAPI, SSL, etc..

Thanks,

Stephen
