Greetings, Ryan Johnson!Most student work will be done on private installs of pgsql, which they can set up however they'd like.
I'm trying to set up pgsql for classroom instruction, which means I need to allow students to connect to my machine, preferably with no OS-level privileges and minimal database privileges.If your class is about setting up the server, you should really use virtual machines. If it's about using SQL on already running server, it makes no difference, if you've your server as Cygwin port or native application - clients will never know.
It is unclear to me, why you need to let students access the machine.Setting up the database roles looks straightforward enough, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to secure the machine.
Thanks, Ryan
