Thank you, I’ll be trying that out as soon as I get our postgresql server 
configured with ssl.  Do you know if the postgresql public key is required on 
the client side?  I see references to a ~/.postgresql/postgresql.key being 
available to the client. But I’m not clear if this is required or an option.

BTW I’m currently using the win32 SDK version of ogr2ogr that is distributed 
here => http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/, I’m hoping these builds support SSL.  Can 
anybody confirm?

Mike

Mike,

OGR's postgresql/postgis driver makes the connection using PQconnectdb() method 
from the libpq library.
You can set the option 'sslmode' to 'require', 'verify-ca' or 'verify-full' for 
a secure connection. Look for the documentation of PQconnectdb() for further 
details.

Does ogr2ogr (and ogrinfo) natively support secure connections to postgresql?

I need to run ogrinfo and ogr2ogr where the target is a postgresql server 
elsewhere on the network (in a different domain) and secure the communication.
