This parameter specifies whether
a trusted client is authenticated at the server or the client when
the client provides a userid and password combination for a connection.
This parameter (and trust_allclnts) is only active
if the authentication parameter is set to CLIENT. If a user
ID and password are not provided, the client is assumed to have validated
the user, and no further validation is performed at the server.

If this parameter is set to CLIENT (the default),
the trusted client can connect without providing a user ID and password
combination, and the assumption is that the operating system has already
authenticated the user. If it is set to SERVER, the user ID and password
will be validated at the server.
The numeric value for CLIENT
is 0. The numeric value for SERVER is 1.
