Disable TRUST authentication by using ClientAuthentication_hook

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I’d like to disable the TRUST authentication method for certain servers where modification of pg_hba.conf and restarting a service is fairly easy for a number of users.

 

I looked at this example https://wiki.postgresql.org/images/e/e3/Hooks_in_postgresql.pdf It appears that creating a ClientAuthentication_hook and call ereport(ERROR) in case that Port->HbaLine contains TRUST would do the job. Is that right?

 

I am aware that this would not make the server entirely secure but it would make it at least a bit more difficult to enter.

 

Thanks Klaus
