Right Click on the file -> install Certificate.

You need to trust the cert that the Postgres server will be throwing out at you, easiest way to do that is to trust the root cert that you generated in Step 1. Let's assume that your client is a webserver that needs to talk to your Postgres via an encrypted connection. You will want to keep these in a secure place, maybe disconnected form the network, say a thumb drive somewhere?

Now we have all of the cert files we need, should be a total of 6 Generate CSR (the request) openssl req -out db_methoddev_com.csr -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout db_methoddev_com.key -subj "/CN=db."įullfill the request with our CA (root.crt), make it last 10 years (3650 days) openssl x509 -req -in db_methoddev_com.csr -CA root.crt -CAkey root.key -CAcreateserial -out db_methoddev_com.crt -days 3650 -sha256 Here we are going to generate a certificate for the Postgres Server, for now let's have a common name for it "db." Step 3: Generate Server Certificate (more PowerShell) These will be used to generate working certificates, if you trust this cert (root.crt) then you trust any children generated from it. server FQDN or YOUR name) : MethodDevelopmentĮmail Address : in your C:/Certs you should have 2 files (root.key, root.crt).

If you're on a 64 bit version of windows do the "Win64 OpenSSL" latest (not the Light) download and install, note the install path.I'm sure you could do this with a purchased SSL, but we won't do it that way! We use good ol' openssl to generate our certs and that's where we will start. We will do this via PowerShell and OpenSSL, read more below. So your running PostgreSQL on windows, maybe even over a network of windows machines and you want to make sure those network connections are encrypted.
