- With SSL support compiled in, the <productname>PostgreSQL</> server
- can be started with SSL support by setting the parameter
- <varname>ssl</varname> to on in
- <filename>postgresql.conf</filename>. When starting in SSL mode,
- the server will look for the files <filename>server.key</> and
- <filename>server.crt</> in the data directory. These files should
- contain the server private key and certificate respectively. These
- files must be set up correctly before an SSL-enabled server can
- start. If the private key is protected with a passphrase, the
- server will prompt for the passphrase and will not start until it
- has been entered.
