I dropped both roles (Carlos & DBA) from the database and I will show
you exactly what I'm doing:

postgres=# \du
                              List of roles
  Role name |                   Attributes                   | Member of
-----------+------------------------------------------------+-----------
  chris     | Create DB, Replication                         | {}
  postgres  | Superuser, Create role, Create DB, Replication | {}

I am creating the new roles as the 'postgres' database user:

postgres=# CREATE ROLE carlos LOGIN CREATEDB CREATEROLE REPLICATION;
CREATE ROLE

postgres=# CREATE ROLE dba NOLOGIN;
CREATE ROLE

postgres=# \du
                              List of roles
  Role name |                   Attributes                   | Member of
-----------+------------------------------------------------+-----------
  carlos    | Create role, Create DB, Replication            | {}
  chris     | Create DB, Replication                         | {}
  dba       | Cannot login                                   | {}
  postgres  | Superuser, Create role, Create DB, Replication | {}

I was curious what happens when I used 'CREATE GROUP' versus 'CREATE
ROLE' so I gave it a shot but looks like it is the same:

postgres=# CREATE GROUP web;
CREATE ROLE

postgres=# \du
                              List of roles
  Role name |                   Attributes                   | Member of
-----------+------------------------------------------------+-----------
  carlos    | Create role, Create DB, Replication            | {}
  chris     | Create DB, Replication                         | {}
  dba       | Cannot login                                   | {}
  postgres  | Superuser, Create role, Create DB, Replication | {}
  web       | Cannot login                                   | {}

postgres=# \password carlos
Enter new password:
Enter it again:

Now I login as 'carlos':

carlos@debian:~$ psql -d postgres
Password:
psql (9.1.9)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=>

but...

?
Hit enter to soon?
