Duke does not allow any sort of inbound db connection, secure
or not, so I figured we'd have to tunnel through a vpn.
Presumeably OpenVPN.  With that in mind I shut down the
ssl connections to postrgresql some time back.
(I think before you got involved Jun, but if not then
I hope I did not cause you headaches.)

However, now that Hunter has dis-allowed logins directly
to papio we may have trouble establishing a VPN connection.
I don't know yet but it's something to keep on our
list.
