Minimal required to run psql on remote machine

Hi,

I'd like to run psql on a remote machine. For security, there won't be
login access granted for ssh sessions but we'd like to test various SPs
and so forth. What is the minimum I have to install on to the remote
machine so that I can connect with psql -h remote ?

Cheers

Mike

The base postgres install should allow this. You just need to make sure
your packet filter and pg_hba.conf allow connections from the particular
hosts you want to allow access from.
