Why is it better to do this with a privilege, rather than just using pg_hba.conf? It doesn't represent an actual "permission level" after all - it's just an administrative "flag" to say you can't connect. Which AFAICS can just as easily be handled in pg_hba.conf? I guess I'm missing something? -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
