LEFT JOIN permissions ON (...)
WHERE permissions.id IS NULL

You might have to do the NULL check in a HAVING clause instead... try
it.

BTW, this is probably better asked on pgsql-sql.

A Not Join

I have three table:
Users - Contains username, ID etc...
Permissions - A permission name and ID
Link up table - The user.id and permission.id

If a user.id and a permission.id row exists in the linkuptable the user 
have that permission granted.

With the statement below I can see the permissions a user have.
 
SELECT users.username, permissions.name
FROM users INNER JOIN linkuptable
  ON (users.id = linkuptable.userid)
INNER JOIN permissions
  ON (permissions.id = linkuptable.permissionid)
WHERE users.username = 'DummyUser'

How do I see the permissions that user DON'T have with a fast SQL statement.

Thus, a NOT the statement for the above SQL statement

Simple.

select permname
from permissions
where permid not in (
	select permid	
from linkage
	where userid = 'dummy'
);

Or... a slick way to get the anti-permission for the whole bunch of
users is to;

cross join the userids with permids and then EXCEPT SELECT from
linkage table to filter out the active permissions.

Have fun!
