PostgreSQL Central Repository Setup Guide

Step 1: Prepare the PostgreSQL Server (Windows PC)


1. Install Windows Server OS (2019 or 2022) on one of the PCs.

- Use a bootable USB or ISO image.

- During installation, assign a static IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.10).

2. Install PostgreSQL:

- Download installer from https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/

- Choose components: PostgreSQL Server, pgAdmin (optional)

- Set port (default: 5432) and postgres user password

Step 2: Enable Remote Access


1. Edit postgresql.conf:

- Navigate to: C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\<version>\data\postgresql.conf

- Change line: listen_addresses = '*'

2. Edit pg_hba.conf:

- Add: host all all 192.168.1.0/24 md5

3. Restart PostgreSQL service from Services.msc

4. Allow port 5432 through Windows Firewall:

- Run as admin: netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="PostgreSQL" dir=in action=allow

protocol=TCP localport=5432

Step 3: Ubuntu Client Configuration


On each Ubuntu PC (9 clients):

1. Install PostgreSQL client:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install postgresql-client

2. Connect to server:

psql -h 192.168.1.10 -U postgres -d postgres

Step 4: Create Databases and Users


Login on the server using pgAdmin or psql and run:

CREATE DATABASE devdb1;

CREATE DATABASE devdb2;

CREATE DATABASE testdb;

CREATE USER devuser1 WITH PASSWORD 'StrongPass1';

CREATE USER devuser2 WITH PASSWORD 'StrongPass2';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE devdb1 TO devuser1;

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE devdb2 TO devuser2;

Step 5: Test Connection


On Ubuntu clients, test access using:

psql -h 192.168.1.10 -U devuser1 -d devdb1
