Thread: SSH Tunneling in pgAdmin4
<div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px">One of the main reasons I have been looking forward to pgAdmin4is to resolve the crashing issues when connecting via SSH Tunnel. There doesn't appear to be a way to set up an SSHTunnel connection in the pgAdmin4 Beta. Didn't see any mention of it in the pgAdmin4 documentation either. Is this somethingthat is slated for a later Beta/Alpha release?</span><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px"><br /></div><divstyle="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px">Thanks!</div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px">Justin</div><divclass="" style="margin:2px 0px 0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px"></div></div>

It's likely to be less important now that you can run on a web server. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

I still consider SSH tunnel support to be very important, under the assumption that running a DBMS general admin program on one's own computer that talks to the server via SSH tunnel is more secure than running one on a web server where it would present a larger attack surface on the DBMS from the public. I wouldn't want to allow connections to Postgres directly from the public internet either. -- Darren Duncan
