I like a single three-way switch since if you are allowing DDL, you probably don't care if you restrict DML. log_statement already has a similar distinction with values of none, ddl, mod, all. I assume allow_system_table_mods could have value of false, dml, true. -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.
