Weird! It does link against libssl, so you may be right. Apparently
though, it doesn't implement SSL right...

Even weirder. I have definitely never changed a "default access
method". Are you trying TCP based connections (-h localhost)?

For reference:

gaia:~> psql -h localhost -U ailab ailab
Password: 
Welcome to psql 7.3.3, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Type:  \copyright for distribution terms
       \h for help with SQL commands
       \? for help on internal slash commands
       \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
       \q to quit

SSL connection (cipher: DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits: 256)

Nice, but neither really solve my problem. I need SSL, and it looks
like pam_pgsql wants that too.

Thanks for your time!
