Hi,

I´m very new to Postgres and I need some help with following: (some how I
was unable to mail to the newbie maillist, sorry..)

Is it possible to restrict user rights by using both username+password and
IP address.

I have a situation where same user accessing the database from different
locations (IP addresses) must have different user rights. This means, that
same user in different locations would see different ammount of data. I know
I can build this easily to the web based front-end, but I´d like to make the
restriction in Postgres too.

thanks!

-Tuomas
