TMA-POSTGRES-8.3
Ensure miscellaneous configuration settings are correct
Description
This recommendation covers non-regular, special files, and dynamic libraries. PostgreSQL permits local logins via the UNIX DOMAIN SOCKET and, for the most part, anyone with a legitimate Unix login account can make the attempt. Limiting PostgreSQL login attempts can be made by relocating the UNIX DOMAIN SOCKET to a subdirectory with restricted permissions.
