- The view <code class="structname">pg_hba_file_rules</code> provides a summary of
- the contents of the client authentication configuration
- file, <code class="filename">pg_hba.conf</code>. A row appears in this view for each
- non-empty, non-comment line in the file, with annotations indicating
- whether the rule could be applied successfully.
- </p><p>
- This view can be helpful for checking whether planned changes in the
- authentication configuration file will work, or for diagnosing a previous
- failure. Note that this view reports on the <span class="emphasis"><em>current</em></span> contents
- of the file, not on what was last loaded by the server.
- </p><p>
- By default, the <code class="structname">pg_hba_file_rules</code> view can be read
- only by superusers.
