i get into the database with user postgres and did this;
postgres=# ALTER USER vpostmaster WITH PASSWORD 'FAKE';
ALTER ROLE
postgres=# SELECT passwd FROM pg_shadow WHERE usename='vpostmster';
 passwd
--------
(0 rows)

postgres=#

why is it doing that?, i have changed the password in 
/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf to FAKE and it still does not work, what is 
going wrong with my postgres server? i also tried uncommenting this line 
in pg_hba.conf:


host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          ident sameuser

but it juat said "uathentication failed" when trying "cd vpostmaster: 
psql -d vpostmaster -h localhost"
