Re: user to database restriction?

Ok, it looks like the final argument is used to set up realtionships
between remote unix users to pg users.  So wouldn't that mean that
ultimately the user would be able to view any database anyway since
the pg user can view any database?  (aside from revoking privs at the
table level)

Is there any means of user to database access restriction?
