The current code implements what I suggested in that note, viz: default permissions for new databases are owner = all rights (ie, create schema and create temp) public = create temp right only but template1 and template0 are set to owner (postgres user) = all rights public = no rights by initdb. Also, the "public" schema within template1 is empty but writable by public. This is annoying, but at least it's easy to fix if you mess up --- you can DROP SCHEMA public CASCADE and then recreate the schema. (Or not, if you don't want to.) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
