after reading some mailinglist entries and some doc. it seems roles are the better usergroups
the rolemember can changed afterwards (what is not possible with usergroups without deleting that user)
the user can be member of more than one role (is this true)
the rolepermission can get activated by the user later with a rolepassword
my problems and questions:
1. where can i look, what roles exist? (why arent thy listed under users in sqlsto? or in the users view)
2. where i check what members a role has?
3. who can i add a user, usergroup or an other role to a role? i didn't find the appropriate doc page.
4. to elke: i was unable to find the discussion how permissions to all tables can get set by a script. have you more information for me, to find this.
greetings thomas
p.s. if i forgot some important (dis)advantages from usergroups and roles or if some information are wrong, please correct me.
