The pgsql-general list might be more appropriate for this type of
question... Still:
Are you talking restrictions based on database-users ? If so, look
up grant and revoke in the PG documentation (under SQL commands).
If you're talking about restricting system-users to even attempt to use
psql (which really, would not be much of a restriction), then perhaps
you would have to assign a group-owner to the file psql and grant
execute permission to the group only (well, and owner).
