I will object to any scheme that makes any characters in the user name magic. Two reasons: First, do it right, make a separate column. Second, several tools use URI syntax to specify data sources. This will break any feature that relies on being able to put special characters into the user name. The right solution to having database-local user names is putting extra information into pg_shadow regarding which database this user applies to. It could be an array or some separate "authentication domain" thing. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
