Pierre,

I'm trying to write a program that will access data on a public database (Postgresql) and I don't really want to give pgAdmin to all of my users. That would be disaster! The localhost only access has never been the case. I've been using Postgres for more than 15 years now and I always have users access a common database (although it's always been from a private network).

pgAdmin remote access is not my problem. It's access to the data from the outside. I can always use cPanel if I need to maintain the database but I've got to have remote access for end users (who could be anywhere in the world).

You can't do this because the on-rev PostgreSQL servers security rules 
(following in this the best practices recommanded by the PostgreSQL team) are 
set to allow localhost connections only. Why don't you  simply use the on-Rev 
phpPgAdmin panel from your home box ? Works perfect and let us do exactly all 
what we could do in using PgAdmin on the 5432 unprotected port.

HTH,

Pierre,

I'm not having any trouble with the phpPgAdmin because that's running on the 
same server as Postgres is.  What I'm trying to do is use (for the time being) 
PgAdmin from my computer at home to talk to the server at on-rev.  So far, all 
I get is a message that there is no server listening there so I'm thinking it's 
some sort of firewall issue.  Has anyone been able to successfully connect to 
Postgres on on-rev from a remote computer?

Ien,

There went some troubles, full solved months ago, about login to the phpPgAdmin 
panel of the cPanel, on the loki server at least. All worked from that time 
100% well. Both MySQL and PostgreSQL are yet full usable in the on-rev 
environment and some of my apps use both on a 24/7 basis (MySQL for the 
earliest ones, and PostgreSQL for all the other and next to come.

HTH,

I seem to remember someone having trouble connecting to a database on their 
on-rev account remotely a while back.  Was this ever resolved?  I'd like to 
have a database that can be accessed from anywhere but I'd rather not go 
through the hoops of making a web service to get at the data.

Was this too much of a security issue for the hosting service to allow?
