Hello,
I don't think you can create users *inside* a database, but for each
database,
you can create global users and make them members of a group having the same
name than your database.
Then, in pg_hba.conf, the folllowing line will give to your users the
permission to
connect to the database they belong :
host samegroup all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 md5
Bye,
Philippe Ferreira.
