Free PostgreSQL Database Hosting - Needs Beta Testers

I am looking for PostgreSQL users to beta test the following free database
hosting service:

http://superid.dyndns.org:8080/freesql/index.php

I've done a fair amount of testing myself, but I need a few more people to
work the rest of the bugs out. I'd be grateful if people would do the
following:

1) create an account and database
2) remotely connect via ODBC or other means
3) insert and select data
4) report results to me, good or bad

I'm happy to offer this free service (the free MySQL hosting is going over
well so far) and I hope people find it useful. Take the poll, and offer
suggestions too!

Regards,

Gary H.

Just did it.

It looks pretty slow, but it could be my connection.

And I think you should put high on the todo list the obscurement of
other users' DB from phpMyAdmin...

cool. i create database "trillich" and granted public select
access; two tables, one view, all worked like a charm. (all via
the php interface -- i tried from my own command line "psql -h
superid.dyndns.org -p 5432 -u trillich" but i kept winding up
pointing to my own server (probably my own internal firewall
snag).

looks clean from here... :)

maybe pre-filter the display of other databases through a 'can
the current user select or insert... ' kind of thing.
