Hi,
now this might be a bit of a silly question, but I'll give it a shot
anyway.
I'm working on a remote database for a few employees of a rather small
startup company where at least a few will get teleworking jobs.
They'll get a ms-access application that connects via ODBC from their
home.
They'll have limited access to the tables. Some will be just readable
or writable.
Obviously to work with the most intersting data they'll need reading
an writing access.
Could I somehow avoid that one of them uses pg_dump or even Access
itself to pull all the data out and sell it to a competitor?
You have conflicting objectives here.
You give them read access to the data, but you don't want them to read it.
The real issue here is a legal one. Once you let the data go from the
server to their machine, who knows what they'll do with it.
