I mean make the catalog of tables, function and roles private and only accessible to granted users ?

Someon mentioned once to make changes in template1, wich changes will be nneded ? In case this is possible.

Thanks for any help/sugestion !

Ok...

the catalog of tables, function and roles are public. Pgadmin use the catalog to create the tree of databases, function and roles. The user can see this but cant change this. In oracle the catalog of user, tables, function are public

Look this isn't the point I know what can be done with pg_hba.conf

The main point is:

When I create a postgresql user and grant to it only access to part of a database (let's say one view). I'm expecting that the server will honor it. But right now postgresql server isn't.

This is the reason I'm writing here and tried too hackers list but no one seems to understand the importance of this point.

Maybe it's my fault of knowledge but till now no one showed me how to get the expected result, people try to tell me how to use firewall, change the way of build my application, they don't understand the point. I'll repeat it again:


When I create a postgresql user and grant to it only access to part of a database (let's say one view). I'm expecting that the server will honor it. But right now postgresql server isn't.

Actually any user with login access can see all databases/roles/functions/table-definitions/triggers. What I thinks isn't correct.

I'll apreciate any solution to this problem.

ok, let try this .....

open the pg_hba.conf and check the line

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          trust

and change to

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          password

I did the following:
-Connect as superuser postgres with pgadmin and create a user -> noaccess
CREATE ROLE noaccess LOGIN
  NOSUPERUSER NOINHERIT NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE;

-Disconnect from the server
-Connect to the server with user 'noaccess' through pgadmin3, and I can see all databases/functions/schemas/roles.

What am I missing ?

hello...

you can restric acces from all the databases in your cluster. When you use pgadmin3 this show all the databases but if you dont have access to the databases you cant see the struct of this.

check waht user use pgadmin3 for connect to databases

create groups and add privileges to the group later add the users to the group
