Another way that we've sometimes recommended people handle custom login

(1) use PAM for authentication
(2) find or write a PAM plugin that makes the kind of check you want

Very interesting - I'll first try the connlimit approach hinted at by Filip, but if PostgreSQL does normal session setup/teardown using PAM (I've never used PAM authentication for PostgreSQL before), this should be a workable solution in case using iptables doesn't turn out to properly handle disconnected sessions quickly enough.

Thanks for pointing me at the PAM!
