Hi,

The following command makes a superuser. Is this correct?

template1=# CREATE USER xyz CREATEUSER;
CREATE ROLE
template1=# select rolname,rolsuper from  pg_roles where rolname = 'xyz';
 rolname | rolsuper
---------+----------
 xyz     | t
(1 row)

I think CREATEUSER keyword is equal to CREATEROLE.

Regards,
