Обсуждение: Is it possible to start PostgreSQL in 'restrict' mode
Hi
Is it possible to start a PostgreSQL cluster in ‘restrict’ mode so that only the postgres user can connect to a database i.e. as a means of keeping ‘normal’ user out when data updates etc. are being carried out?
Thanks

Hi,
Do you mean only a single user could logon?
If that is what you mean, then you can get that by simply not adding any other users.

Sure, just adjust pg_hba.conf to accept connections from only that user.

Hi Serge
Not really - more of a case of temporarily not allowing 'non-super' user to connect while data is being updated
Tom
I think that this is the answer - if I restrict access to the 'data_owner' user over the network by replacing the
entry:all with data_owner in the pg_hba.conf file this should allow us to carry out data updates 'in peace' as
required.
Thanks

Of course, this means you have to "push" out other active client connections. Luca
