Re: Best security practices for installing pgSQL with my software

Greg,

The program will have a database on the local PC, and be able to connect to the server database as well. Eventually they will synchronise the email, contacts etc.

aaah. Like Lotus Notes.  

I need the database on the local PC so the user can take their PC/laptop home and still work.

Yes, now it is clear.

Do you think a direct connection to the database port using SSL will be suitable for this kind of scenario?

I guess the connection between client and server should be the least of your concerns in this scenario :) Of course you can connect via SSL, that is explicitly supported by PostgreSQL.

The challenges begin with the key infrastructure, the synchronization, the network, the ports, the installation of Databases on a lot of client computers in an automated fashion etc., the access rights et. all

It took me around a year to get that working :); so better start now.

Best wishes and good luck,

Harald
