Thread: How to use SSL conections?

Hi,

My system config is:

    Backend (Linux)            Clients (VB6)
        |           ODBC        |
        +------------------------+
                   TCP/IP

I want use SSL connections. How I do?

At the backend side I need to compile the PostgreSQL --with-openssl
option.
At the client side what I need to do?
Where I can find more info about PostgreSQL SSL operation?

Thanks.

Implement SSL support in the ODBC driver and share it with the rest of us.
:-/

Currently, only libpq-based interfaces are known to support SSL
connections.
