Hi,

I need to connect a PostgreSQL server via public Internet from your tools (LinqConnect, etc.).

This has two issues: 1) the standard port is typically not available in bigger companies and it's cumbersome to get it open--if possible at all. 2) Having the standard port open is probably a security concern.

Is this a known topic? What do you suggest? Is there a way, for instance, to use port 443 or would this cause trouble with deep inspection firewalls?

Thx,

Ekki

You can use the SSL connection: https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/postg ... tions.html.

Be aware:

• LinqConnect is shipped with the Express edition of dotConnect for PostgreSQL: https://www.devart.com/linqconnect/docs ... ction.html
• the SSL support is not available in the Express edition of dotConnect for PostgreSQL: https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/postg ... tions.html

So the PostgreSQL / LinqConnect / SSL functionality would be available in any of the following combinations:

• dotConnect for PostgreSQL Professional
• LinqConnect Professional and dotConnect for PostgreSQL Standard
