Howdy,
Am trying to implement a user/group based security model for
accessing a database which is tightly integrated with the postgresql
security model.
The problem I am having is that I am not sure how to check which
groups a user is in.
For example, if I have a user (with id of 21) in a group, I'm not
sure how to start off with the user id and pull out the group name
using normal sql.
If I try the half intuitive approach
z=> select groname from pg_group where grolist = 21;
ERROR: Unable to identify an operator '=' for types '_int4' and 'int4' You will have to retype this query using
anexplicit cast
The cause of my problem is the use of an array to store the user id's
associated with a group. Not sure how to get around this.
Any ideas?
Please cc replies to me as I think I've fallen off this list.
tia,
-Greg
