The option is there already, it's called "none". That's what people are asking for - they don't care who they are connecting to, just that the traffic is encrypted (be it legitimate or hacked traffic, at least it's encrypted). It's just a matter of if it's default or not. //Magnus -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
