Interesting you should say that because I know remember what happened, slap me
with a wet fish later for the noise.
I'm convinced I rebuilt on the workstation in order to get a libpq with ssl. I
am equally convinced I tested it and it worked. Then a couple of days later
trying to get the developers using Windows to be able to connect I looked at it
again and I found my psql was no longer linked against the ssl library. Was
very wierd.
However, I never was able to get the developers connected. I may need to
revisit that later.
Sorry for the noise, my memory is going.
