Well if you do the popular technique of doing everything through stored procedures (in our case plpgsql functions) then you can have those functions check. I don't like that approach myself though. You could also have a column with a default value which uses the sslinfo to retrieve the common name. Or you could have a trigger which throws an error if that function doesn't return valid value. Either way you would be doing a lot more work than necessary since it would be checking every row, not once per session. And it wouldn't stop selects. I think what you really want is a ON CONNECT trigger for this. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com
