Yes. Currently I already create a separate "replicator" superuser just so that I can simply track which connections belong to replication. It would be great if it could make the "replicator" user less than a superuser. If we still make it possible for "postgres" to replicate, then we don't add any complexity to the simplest setup. -- -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://www.pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
