[postgis-users] Connecting AutoCAD to PostGIS / setting up a read only user

[Christophe Vergon]

Hi,

Autocad belongs to the windows world, so I think  it's a windows account 
problem. And with Seven OS it's a little bit tricky.

Here is what I have so far:    Originally I set up read only user account on PostGRES 9.1 / PostGIS 2.0 -64bit.  I verified the account works by connecting to PostGIS through qgis, and through ArcMap.  CAD unfortunately would not connect.  I could see the PostGIS tables however I would get an error if I tried to load the data.  At first I thought that the issue was that CAD could not work with PostGRES 9.1 / PostGIS 2.0.  However it turns out I can connect to PostGIS if I use the administrator account, instead of the user account that I created.
