When I try to set up a connection to a Postgres/Postgis DB server with
Active Directory/Kerberos/GSS authentication the QGIS DB setup dialog
displays this message:
gssencmode value "require" invalid when GSSAPI support is not
compiled in
When I check the Postgres source code [1] I see that apparently this
gets displayed when GSS support is not compiled in.
So it seems QGIS as shipped by qgis.org <http://qgis.org> does not
ship with GSS support?
Is that correct?
Does anybody use QGIS on Windows with GSS? How did you do it?
I could go ahead and download the EDB Postgres ZIP [3] and exctract
libpq.dll from it and replace the libqq.dll shipped by the QGIS
installer with it, but I'm not sure if that would work at all, if that
would be robust and it'll certainly be a pain to maintain.
Any pointers/suggestions/help?
Maybe this is the proverbial dumb question... but why not install your
EDB PostgreSQL on your windows machine and run it on a different port?
And then connect to it from your QGIS instance, on that different port
of course?
Thanks for your answer Chris, but I can't see how you your reply relates
to my question. I need QGIS to authenticate users with Active
Directory/Kerberos. That QGIS/libpq fails to do so doesn't have anything
to do with ports but with the fact that GSS support is not compiled into
the libpq that is furnished with QGIS.
