Description (last modified by Malcolm Tredinnick)

On the db setup page http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/databases/

There should be some specs on what rights django needs.

easies way to define it is with the command:

grant all on djangosite.* to djangouser identified by 'abc' with grant option;

For the various dbs.

Only A) someone should figure out what rights are really needed,
and B) maybe come up with 2 users, one for creating tables with manage.py syncdb.

I can see the attitude of "if you are going to run a server you should know" but this doesn't do much good for people who just want to try it out, and i like the DBA attitude of 'you prove to me why you need it and I'll give it to you."
