I guess I am still confused by role / group & user accounts. If you
create a role / group called 'finance', it then shows up as a user
when I do \dg? Then how do I make users a member of the 'finance' role
/ group if they're listed just like regular users are?

easports=# CREATE ROLE finance;
CREATE ROLE
easports=# \dg
                       List of roles
 Role name |            Attributes             | Member of
-----------+-----------------------------------+-----------
 cmennens  | Superuser                         | {}
 finance   | Cannot login                      | {}
 postgres  | Superuser, Create role, Create DB | {}

>From the above listing, I would expect 'finance' to not be listed with
my users since finance is a role / group, not a single user. I want to
make specific users members of 'finance'. Am I missing something or
just slow today?
