Hello,

I have been asked to configure a database role
to be used for ODBC access.

So far I have done this:

CREATE ROLE odbc_user LOGIN
  ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'bar'
  NOSUPERUSER INHERIT NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE;

REVOKE ALL ON DATABASE foo FROM odbc_user;
REVOKE CREATE ON SCHEMA public FROM public;
GRANT SELECT ON v_sales TO odbc_user;

When I try:

foo-> SELECT * FROM customers;
access is denied as expected

foo->\d baz
I see table definitions.


How can I restrict the role "odbc_user" to just
"SELECT whatever FROM v_sales;" and nothing else?


Any help would be very appreciated.


Regards,

Rainer Leo
