Re: Postresql/postgis/qgis : assign privileges only for access/reading tables ?

Two thoughts:

1. Can the user view the tables when connecting through another database
program (ie psql or PgAdmin)?
2. Does the user have access to the database schema that has the PostGIS
extension (normally public schema)?

cheers
