It shouldn't behave that way, no. PUBLIC isn't an explicit list of users but an implicit "everybody" class. I suspect you have misdescribed your problem. There have been other known bugs in privilege-manipulation though. What PG version are you using? Can you give an exact example of a sequence that causes a problem? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
