Hello all,
I have created users for which I have restricted access to SELECT
from a set of tables, this works :)
But when I issue a REVOKE CREATE ON DATABASE mydb FROM myuser;
The user can still create tables...I've also issued this command for the
SCHEMA and still no go.
Is this a known problem, if so how can I restrict users from creating
objects in my db?
Is myuser a superuser? If so, you can revoke all you want and he'll
still be able to do anything he wants. Also, I think that if myuser
owns the current database he can always create tables in it.
myuser is not a superuser. is the public schema special in that you
cannot revoke create privileges from users accessing it?
