Try the password "any-doc" for user "any-doc".

Your local pg_hba.conf is still configured to require ident-based 
authentication for "any-doc".
This will not work. Please resend your pg_hba.conf.

However, the password will not even be considered because pg_hba.conf is
configured to require IDENT authentication for any-doc.

Good advice.

   apt-get install pgadmin3

It can be a bit confusing, however, at times.

Alternatively, in a shell, try:

   psql -d gnumed_v9 -U any-doc

if it does ask for a password, use "any-doc". It probably won't because, see 
above, pg_hba.conf
is set up to require IDENT rather than md5.

It should, correct.
