Hi guys,

 

I am trying to figure out if I can get Postgres to bind to only the loop-back interface (127.0.0.1) as apposed to binding to all the available interfaces (0.0.0.0) available on the system.

1. The first question is whether this is feasible at all?

2. If yes, what is the configuration (and where) to enable it.

 

Thanks a lot in advance.

 

- Uday
