Ok,
so the best I can do at the moment, in terms of ssl on postgresql via
JDBC, is to use an unauthenticated connection!? Is man in the middle a
real concern, as the data in the tables will be encrypted?

{web|client}------->apache2---------<authenticted
ssl>--------->jbiss4---------<unauthenticated ssl>-------->postgresql

regards

Andrew
