PgAccess Tutorial - User Administration

+While user administration is really not a part of the PgAccess program, it is +such a basic operation that a brief description is given here. +

Creating users

+The procedure for setting up postgreSQL usually results in a single user +named postgres. In order for anyone else to use postgreSQL, +users must be added. The program createuser accomplishes this. +First become the PostgreSQL administrator (usually postgres):

+su postgres

+Then create a new user:

+createuser jim +Enter user's postgres ID or RETURN to use unix user ID: 500 -> +Is user "jim" allowed to create databases (y/n) y +Is user "jim" a superuser? (y/n) y +createuser: jim was successfully added

+You can use either the UNIX user ID or the postgres ID to identify users. See +the postgreSQL documentation in the "admin" section for a fuller +account of users and groups.

+The reason for using the command line to create the first user (other than +postgres) is that postgres may not have X-Window permission. +You can also create users using PgAccess if you are created as a +superuser as shown in the example above.

Removing users

+To remove users, use the destroyuser command in the same way.
