Re: How to add a new user to Informix Database?
Posted in 1998
You don't really access the Informix database using a login and password.
The way in which Informix security works is by giving privilages to users
using the GRANT command ( found in Informix documentation ).
GRANT DBA TO JOE
grants full DBA privilages whereas
GRANT INSERT ON tablename TO JOE
allows JOE to insert data to the table tablename
JOE MUST exist as a known user on the system i.e. must have a login name
and password.
If you have any other problems, give me a call.
