Dear All

Next question on privileges!  Can I safely remove all privileges from the system catalog tables for a user and still enable them to select from the public schema?  I guess the real question is what access rights does an ordinary user have to have to the system catalog tables in order for postgres to work properly given I only ever want the user to be able to SELECT from views.

This is all brought about by a user who wants to use MS Access Query for adhoc queries to a (small) database via ODBC.  (the database itself drives a major web application.) I can't find an easy way of preventing them seeing that tables exist but I don't want them trying to manually update any tables of mine or postgres's thank you very much!  (Don't shoot the messenger - there's no accounting for user's tastes!)
