I wouldn't recommend making phppgadmin available from the Internet in
any form but...

<Directory "/var/www/html/phpldapadmin">
SSLRequireSSL
</Directory>

would require SSL to access...adjust paths to suit.

I also would require user authentication to access the path (I use
mod_authz_ldap) so that the user accessing it is logged and of course,
then the security aspects of postgres would then apply too.
