Well, what I showed is supposition on my part and is not necessarily the
truth. Part of the issue is discerning the truth of how information
flows through the system, in particular what exactly is/are the
application(s) talking to Postgres/pgBouncer. It is still unknown, at
least to me, where geoserver fits into the above and whether it is
connecting directly to Postgres or going through the Tomcat server. Once
some sort of schematic for connection(current, desired) is provided then
it would be possible to do as you suggest. The confusion from what I am
following is that the "(application using PostgreSQL) --> port 5432
(Postgres)" part is not known.
