Subject: Re: How to connect cl+ssl with host ca verification?
To: Sabra Crolleton <sabra.crolleton(a)gmail.com>
That works, but it looks like the root ca has to be added to the system. If
using psql I could specify where all the certs I want to use to connect
with like so:
$>psql "port=5432 host=localhost user=postgres sslcert=./test/client.crt
sslkey=./test/client.key sslrootcert=./test/server.crt sslmode=verify-full"
Is there an equivalent in Postmodern?
