Hallo Mark,
in your pg_hha.conf you have used
cert
as authentication,
which is authorization using a certificate
(not a password)
(as mailed before with documentation links)
did you test pgadmin and firedac from the same client machine?
hth,
Wim

Hi Tim,
Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, I don't know what private certificate authorisation is. I
assume this is different to SSL and is not the same as a self signed cert. I
have created my certificate with OpenSSL so I assume I am not in the arena
of private certificate authorisation.
Thanks for the tip re Debian, but sadly client and server are all Windows
machines.
I think I will put a plea out there to anyone who uses FireDAC and has
managed to get SSL working with Postgre. Absent anything useful there, I
will give up on Postgre.
All the best.
Mark

I suspect Wim was referring to private certificate authentication rather
than connections over SSL - use the same basic technologies, but for
different goals.
While it may or may not be useful, I believe that recent versions of Debian
actually come with SSL connections enabled by default (using self signed
cert). Might provide the example you need?
