Well, then what do I need to get NpGSQL connecting to my server with SSL?

Do I just turn SSL on in the database and in my connection string set SSL to true?

The other provider is CoreLab .NET for PostGreSQL. It seems pretty good, but don't see the point in
paying for a provider when I can get one for free.

If we're talking npgsql (http://pgfoundry.org/projects/npgsql), that
information is incorrect. Npgsql uses a managed implementation of SSL,
so it does *not* use the OpenSSL libraries.

If we're talking some other .net dataprovider (IIRC there is at least
one other out there somewhere, though I haven't used it and can't
remember exactly what it's called), then it may or may not be using
openssl.
