      Howdy,

I want to prevent any Postgresql database connection other than SSL but
it didn't work and my client can connect without SSL!

* How can fix this issue?

P.S. To force SSL connection I made the following steps:

On server side (ubuntu 12.10 x64 - Postgresql 9.1)
1) Created server.key and server.crt
2) Modified pg_hba.conf and added "hostnossl  all  all  0.0.0.0/0 reject"

Actually something more along lines of

hostssl all all 0.0.0.0/0

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/auth-pg-hba-conf.html

hostssl
This record matches connection attempts made using TCP/IP, but only when the connection is made with SSL encryption.

To make use of this option the server must be built with SSL support. Furthermore, SSL must be enabled at server start time by setting the ssl configuration parameter (see Section 17.9 for more information).


Also remember in pg_hba.conf first match wins, so if there is a more permissive entry before your restrictive one, the permissive one will take precedence.

3) Modified postgresql.conf "ssl = on"
4) Restarted the server

On client side (Qt 5.1)
db.setDatabaseName("mydb");
db.setHostName("localhost");
db.setUserName("postgres");
db.setPassword("****");
db.setPort(5432);
db.setConnectOptions("requiressl=1");
if (!db.open()) {
     qDebug() << "Unable to connect!";
}
