title: How can I configure PostgreSQL to use Windows Authentication?
body: <p>I am trying to setup PostgreSQL and allow only certain Windows users to access the data from the database. Setting up Windows Authentication is Quite easy with MS SQL, but I can't figure out how to set it up in PostgreSQL.</p>
  
  <p>I have gone through the documentation at <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/auth-methods.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/auth-methods.html</a></p>
  
  <p>and edited the pg_hba file. But after doing so, the PostgreSQL service fails to start.</p>
