By mistake I didn't answered in the thread. Here are my two cents.
You should avoid opening ports in postgresql server by using ssh
tunneling.
My experience is that this kind of infrastructure can be slow for
remote connections. Take a look to the offline editing plugin or maybe
(it's only an idea) you can have slave postgresql servers in each
building and some kind of synchronization with the master one.

Hi Luigi and Alessandro,
thanks for the clarifications.
Quick other question: is it correct that the id MUST be exactly 7
characters Less than or more than 7 characters won't work? At least
on my system saving the config is deactivated if it is less than 7 chars.
Thanks,
Andreas

Hi,
I wonder what is best practice to handle auth configs across
several users for sharing of projects?
Should we ask users to create the same auth-config ids/names to
make projects interoperable, where each users would have
different credentials, but share the auth-config id that is
stored in the QGIS project file?
Is this how we should do it? Otherwise users would end up with
different auth-ids and then can't open QGIS files from their
colleagues without a hassle ...
Or are there better/alternative approaches?
One of the best ways we've used so far was to pre-define at the
organization level a small set of authids, you are limited to 7
chars but that's not a big issue.
So, when creating project you will use one of the pre-defined auth
ids, of course every user will have to use his own local QGIS auth
DB (this is all handled transparently by the QGIS auth system) where
he stores his own credentials.
If you share your project within your organization, as long as the
user who receives the project has his credentials already sets for
the given auth ids access will be granted automatically, if not he
will be prompted to enter credentials and if he stores them in the
QGIS auth local DB this will be required only for the first time.
This system gives the sysadmins full flexibility: individual
credentials can be revoked/granted, no need to share any auth DB in
any case.
Hope this helps.

this is not an issue, Postgres support many auth systems
most of them paired with the authentication system
implemented in QGIS. Other problem is how to share
(auth.db) credentials or security setting among
different users.

Hi Hernán!
Maybe this comment is redundant but you have to set up
a strong security to prevent hackers to hack your
database and steal your data and cause damage.
I hope uthat you already have thought about this issu!
Kind Regards
Jan-Eric

Ämne: [Qgis-user] Experiences using QGIS +
PostgreSQL/PostGIS in a multiuser environment?
Hello QGIS:ers
I am evaluating setting up a server running
PostgreSQL/PostGIS for use as data
sharing/collaborating environment for spatial data. The
user group may consist of up to 15 people, mostly using
QGIS but one or two may use other software (non OS).
Data is almost exclusively of vector type. The use is
within a single organization.
I understand some people in this list have experience
with this kind of environment and would appreciate if
any of you would share any useful experience,
challenges, thought or things to watch out for. I
understand basic management routines are critical (user
management, user rights), as well as a sound backup and
update strategy. I also understand that proper data
management procedures have to be in place, like rules
for table creation and eventual deletion, attribute
selection, etc. But what else can go wrong with this
kind of setup if not managed properly?
Thoughts and experiences welcome!
Best regards and thanks in advance
Hernán
