How is the database server supposed to start up and become ready to accept connections without reading the database? Also, as previously mentioned, if a bad guy gets hold of the machine while running, what prevents them from installing a daemon to record and transmit keystrokes after they copy the encrypted data? Perhaps an encrypted drive for the database data combined with an aggressive lockup policy for an idle machine would work? -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
