Well,
You can grant specific (read, write, etc..) permissions for the tables in
your database to any legitimate user recognized by postgres (ie. users
created with the createuser command). I am unsure as to how to grant
specific permissions on an entire database.
to see how to grant/revoke table premissions:
database_prompt=> \h grant
Command: grant
Description: grant access control to a user or group
Syntax:
grant <privilege[,privilege,...]> on <rel1>[,...<reln>] to
[public | group <group> | <username>]
privilege is {ALL | SELECT | INSERT | UPDATE | DELETE | RULE}
database_prompt=> \h revoke
Command: revoke
Description: revoke access control from a user or group
Syntax:
revoke <privilege[,privilege,...]> on <rel1>[,...<reln>] from
[public | group <group> | <username>]
privilege is {ALL | SELECT | INSERT | UPDATE | DELETE | RULE}
Hope this helps,
Bob
