Hi Chris, > I do have a question though. Does your application allow for creating > only users and groups in part of the LDAP tree? Or does it have that > possibility yet?

The LDAP filter is according to RFC 2254 and the PG filter is plain SQL. You may also collect all synchronized roles into a PG-group, so that you can catch them easily. That's shown in https://github.com/larskanis/pg-ldap- sync/blob/master/config/sample-config2.yaml I just updated the README.txt according to your question. > Just as an example of where I am going with this.

I use it together with Kerberos and with SSL-certificate authentication. Since there are default privilegs in Postgres 9.0, it is practicable to use fine graded privileges now. > I plan > to forward this announcement to the list there as well as a > potentially useful tool.

I could announce it too, in case the list is writeable for me. -- Regards, Lars Kanis -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
