postgresql windows external authentication

Question

I have to implement some safety authentication rules on postgresql DB ( with a windows server)like: users not used for a period longer than three months will be locked or postgres enforces account lockout after a set number of failed login attempts.....

Using authentication "standard" ( md5 on pg_hba.conf) I think is not possible..but I think that with PAM I could do but PAM does not exist on win. Any ideas? Thanks a lot Gian

If you don't mind writing a bit of C code, you could probably do this with an authentication hook — Nick Barnes

This is not easy, but can be done with an LDAP interface to AD. Personally, I would load the whole mess into an Ubuntu or Centos vm
