Karsten, The project homepage has a reference to the project documentation. It can be found here: http://veil.projects.postgresql.org/curdocs/index.html If this does not contain what you are looking for, please explain what you need to know as I'd like to improve the documentation. I'm guessing that you'd like a conceptual overview. I intended this to be provided in the section Overview: a quick introduction to Veil buit maybe it falls short. If there is a better way to introduce the concepts, I'd like to hear any ideas. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions at all. I'd be pleased to help GNUmed. __ Marc On Sat, 2005-12-31 at 16:49 -0400, pgsql-general-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Date: Sat, 31 Dec 2005 17:18:19 +0100 > From: Karsten Hilbert <Karsten.Hilbert@xxxxxxx> > To: pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: I want to know how to improve the security of postgresql > Message-ID: <20051231161819.GS5677@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > On Thu, Dec 29, 2005 at 09:22:09AM -0800, Marc Munro wrote: > > > http://pgfoundry.org/projects/veil/ > Marc, is there a higher level written summary available > somewhere to be read to understand conceptually how you > implemented row level security ? > > We will (in GNUmed) eventually have to implement row level > security.
