At my company we are looking at deploying clients for our client/server
app outside our firewall, which will then require our postgres box to be
internet-accessible.

Does anyone out there have experience with this or recommended best
practices? We have been looking at either (a) tunnelling everything
over ssh, or (b) just making sure that users have "strong" passwords and
requiring "md5" authentication in pg_hba.conf.

Our client app is in C# using the postgresql .net data provider.

Regards,
Paul Tillotson
