Josh,

Via psql:
CREATE ROLE bob LOGIN
NOSUPERUSER INHERIT NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE NOREPLICATION;
GRANT dbA TO bob;
GRANT dbA_ro TO bob;
GRANT dbB TO bob;
GRANT dbB_ro TO bob;

dbA, dbA_ro, dbB, and dbB_ro are roles.

I have not created any database yet or assigned permissions to the roles.

Steve Pribyl

How exactly did you add the users?
