PostgreSQL 10 : PostgreSQL over SSL/TLS2019/11/26 |
|
Enable SSL/TLS connection to PostgreSQL.
|
|
| [1] |
Get SSL certificates, refer to here.
This example is based on the case that SSL certificates are gotten under the [/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.srv.world] and set the [Common Name] as [www.srv.world]. |
| [2] | Copy certificates and configure PostgreSQL. |
|
[root@www ~]# cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.srv.world/* /var/lib/pgsql/data/ [root@www ~]# chown postgres. /var/lib/pgsql/data/*.pem [root@www ~]# chmod 600 /var/lib/pgsql/data/*.pem
[root@www ~]#
vi /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf # line 79: uncomment and change ssl = on
# line 84: uncomment and change to your own certs ssl_cert_file = ' /var/lib/pgsql/data/cert.pem 'ssl_key_file = ' /var/lib/pgsql/data/privkey.pem 'ssl_ca_file = ' /var/lib/pgsql/data/chain.pem '
[root@www ~]#
