Good day, I'm having one heck of a time here. I'm looking for a clean solution to issue a COPY statement from a remote system. (because I really don't want to play the ssh, sudo spiel). It's evident that pg_connect doesn't like the \copy command (it's a no go), however it is okay with the COPY command, however the COPY command requires superuser and I really don't want to open up the DB from a remote system with Superuser access. Soooo, what am I missing, misunderstanding ? There has to be a way, seems from reading this has been brought up but I have not found a solution. I must be able to do this from a client system, I must be able to lock down the db user to limited access and I can take care of permissions on the client end, but postgres seems to be slightly rigid in regards to the COPY command and the fact that one can't really have a jailed superuser. I also understand that it's a pg_connect limitation to not accept the \copy variant which would solve me issues. Help me Rhonda, help help me..
