"createuser" actually means "superuser" ... does that make it clearer? PG 8.1 will have a privilege level that allows creation of users without full superuserdom, but no existing release does. > Also, I would really prefer that this user only have access to his one > db and not able to see anything in the other db's. Is this possible? Database connection privileges are controlled by pg_hba.conf; you could adjust that file to allow this user access to only his own database. Better take away his superuser rights first though, else he could undo the change if he chose to. regards, tom lane
