There is one more native driver for C++ Builder/Delphi - pgexpress, but it's not free. Regards, Tomasz Myrta

It's a matter of libpq library, which currently supports md5 authentication. If you need more security - you can even compile libpq with ssl. Tomasz
Tomasz, it seems to be interesting for me as well, but actually I can't download a file from the given url. I just click on the binary zip link, but nothing happen. How should I click? :) Thanks, -- Csaba ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tomasz Myrta" <jasiek@klaster.net> To: "murali" <murali@broadgateindia.com> Cc: <pgsql-sql@postgresql.org> Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 9:06 AM Subject: Re: [SQL] Postgres - Delphi Application > Dnia 2003-06-19 19:50, Użytkownik murali napisał: > > > Hi > > > > I' would like to connect my postgres database on a linux server with > > Delphi 5 Applications,which are located on Win95/98 Clients, very > > helpful would be an example on how to realize a connection of these things > > > > Thanks > > > > Murali > > http://sourceforge.net/projects/zeoslib > > Nice solution - your executable needs only small libpq.dll file without any > annoying BDE/ODBC installation. > There is one more native driver for C++ Builder/Delphi - pgexpress, but it's > not free. > > Regards, > Tomasz Myrta > > > ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- > TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? > > http://archives.postgresql.org > > > --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Using zeos, you get a set of Delphi components that connect the database back end with user-interface controls on your Delphi TForm objects, like TDBEdit, TDBMemo, etc. You use those zeos components instead of the standard "messy" BDE database components TDatabase, TQuery, TTable, etc. While the zeos components would successfully connect to the database back end, they would not allow or require database-enforced md5 authentication at the user-interface end. I didn't want to have to invent my own authentication scheme when the database is capable of doing a good job. ~Berend Tober

I think I looked at zeos at some point and found that it did not support md5 authentication, which, at the time, I thought was important. ~Berend Tober

First you choose version and target of file, after this you have to choose mirror you want to use and then you download. Tomasz
Both link work nicely, thanks. I don't know what could be the problem with the others. But it's not important by now....
