Bob,

Create a database trigger that fires after a ddl event - check the documentation. Something like:

CREATE TRIGGER audit_db_object AFTER CREATE

   ON SCHEMA
      pl/sql_block

You will need to use dynamic sql to issue the grant statements.

BTW - you said you thought this was a common technique. It is *not* a common technique. Database security should not be done this way. Sooner or later you or someone else will forget about this trigger and someone will gain access to info they should not see. And your ass will be on the line.

Just my 2 cents.

Tom

Subject: assign permissions data_owner to data_select

Elementary question but....

Say I have schema data_owner - this guy owns his data and can do what he likes in that schema.

I want to create a user "data_select" who can only select from
"data_owner" and must be dynamic ie when new objects get created
data_select need to see that.

Is there a nice straight forward way to do this? Im thinking dynamic sql

and a log on trigger for data_select, but hopefully there is a nice clean way to do this

I believe this is a common technique and Im wondering how most dba's handle it.

Thanks
Bob
