3    The view <code class="structname">pg_ident_file_mappings</code> provides a summary
4    of the contents of the client user name mapping configuration file,
5    <a class="link" href="auth-username-maps.html" title="20.2. User Name Maps"><code class="filename">pg_ident.conf</code></a>.
6    A row appears in this view for each non-empty, non-comment line in the file,
7    with annotations indicating whether the map could be applied successfully.
8   </p><p>
9    This view can be helpful for checking whether planned changes in the
10    authentication configuration file will work, or for diagnosing a previous
11    failure.  Note that this view reports on the <span class="emphasis"><em>current</em></span>
12    contents of the file, not on what was last loaded by the server.
13   </p><p>
14    By default, the <code class="structname">pg_ident_file_mappings</code> view can be
15    read only by superusers.
