Description Need Real Name 2001-01-29 10:21:56 UTC 
In man of pg_dumpall reading:
-u     Use password authentication. Prompts for username and password.

But pg_dumpall is shell script.
It is not use flags in command line.

I have passwod for connect to psql.
But see :
'
Connection to database 'template1' failed.
fe_sendauth: no password supplied

Connection to database 'template1' failed.
fe_sendauth: no password supplied

Connection to database 'template1' failed.
fe_sendauth: no password supplied
'

Ofcourse, in line 25,41,50,57 call psql without flag -u
In line 57 script not received result of query and cannot
pg_dump anything in line 68.

In line 68 call pg_dump with argumets from command line,
but in another strings not.

postgresql-6.5.2-1

It's still like this in postgresql 7... will look into it.
Comment 2 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2001-03-22 22:34:41 UTC 
The documentation is fixed (removed the option) in postgresql-7.0.3-8, coming
soon to a Rawhide near you
