How difficult is it to set up VPN?
I know that in the past my company has used VPN tunnels, but this was
difficult for our remote users to get set up. I am actually willing to
trade *some* security for ease of installation and simplicity. This
will have to be deployed on 30 to 40 client computer

I doubt it's a good idea to make your postgres server internet accessible.
You'll be using postgresql in what I'd consider to be a less tested
scenario. Most people don't expose their database servers to the Internet.
You could use the following configuration:

Well...if it's truly a client/server app, why not have the client app
talk to the server who actually executes the SQL. That way no remote
access to the database is required.
IMHO, it's a 'bad thing' to have your database exposed to the internet

Another option would be to have them authenticate via a web application
that would open a tunnel specifically for that user per IP.

app outside our firewall, which will then require our postgres box to be
internet-accessible.
Does anyone out there have experience with this or recommended best
practices? We have been looking at either (a) tunnelling ev
