1. SSL

   Hi
   
   I wanted to use SSL with Postgres, and while searching through the
   maillists I found a very old post (1998) Brett McCormick. I found his
   patch in chicken.org, but it seems to be somewhat old (it's for PGSQL
   6.3.2; I'm using 7.0.3). I wrote him directly
   (brett-public@speakeasy.org), but the MTA said that address didn't
   exist.
   
   I couldn't find any other info about using SSL with PostgreSQL. Do you
   have a clue as to where can I find some? I need to connect from Perl and
   PHP, and just don't know where to go from here.
   
   Pointer to docs and anything will be very much appreciated.

   I seem to recall hearing that the SSL code was broken in 7.0.*.  If so,
   you may want to try 7.1beta.

   I would also like to use SSL, or better SSH, with Postgres.  I know I
   could use SSH tunneling, but it would be even better if it were
   integrated.  Does anyone know if this is possible?
   
   Thanks
