I am resending a plea for some good security docs, or locations thereof. I have been wrestling with security on Postgres for some time, and have finally given up for a time. Is there a chance that someone could write a good tutorial, or a chapter in a book, that can explain the various aspects of security on Postgres. The reason that I am asking, is because I have been trying to see if Postgres would/could be a replacement for our 30+ databases(access + sql server). From the understanding that I get from what I read it doesn't look like I can do the security scheme that I want. (I have great respect for all of you who are working on a great product, but as of now, I can't wrap my brain around your security scheme...:( ) Thanks for letting me vent, Speeves
