Re: Loggingt psql meta-commands

John,

I can answer that - Oracle and MS SQL do, or at least there were able to
convince DISA that they do (STIGs for them are present here:
http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/Pages/a-z.aspx). That actually benefits those
products greatly - from the point of view of security they, once hardened,
meet Federal security requirements and such can be used in multiple
products other DBs can't (for that very reason).

Thanks,

Oleg
