Hi Melvin, Thanks for the explanation, it makes things easy to understand. One question : > Although GRANT ALL, at first appears to simplify granting permissions, it is actually a very bad practice that is often misused. That is because doing so would also allow groups and ordinary users the following additional privileges: TRUNCATE, REFERENCES & TRIGGER. If a user has DELETE rights on a table, I don't see how granting him TRUNCATE makes that much of a difference? Same could be said of the other two, it's not like they are going to cause more damage than the previous rights. -- Bien à vous, Vincent Veyron https://marica.fr/ Gestion des contentieux, des dossiers de sinistres assurance et des contrats pour le service juridique -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
