postgresql and openoffice

Configured open office to work with postgresql.
The way it works is to download a package for postgresql (http://dba.openoffice.org/drivers/postgresql/) and then run open office and under tools go to the packagemanager and add the zip file.

Then in the connection manager you choose postgresql and use config options like
dbname=academic host=localhost

I'm not sure if I will use it a lot, but it is something I want to check out.

The other caveat, is that postgres connections can not go through, so I have to tunnel them
through using
ssh -L5432:localhost:5432
