Surely there must be a way of specifying parameters to it. Could you
explain how you are currently establishing the connection?

If this is the only way to do it, then in the 7.4 source tree see
org/postgresql/jdcb1/AbstractJdbc1Connection.java in the openConnection
method:

if (info.getProperty("ssl") != null && Driver.sslEnabled())
{
useSSL = true;
}
else
{
useSSL = false;
}
