What I find really confusing is that according to the manual: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/topic/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.sec.doc/doc/c0005375.html db2admin should already have all those privileges (because it was the user created during installation and that was used to create the database) Do you think if I remove and re-install DB2 this would be fixed?

OK, I decided to drop the database I created and recreate it (as I did not have anything stored in it anyway) Apparently when I created the initial database I was using my regular Windows account and that apparently messed things up. I ran a new commandline (using my db2admin Windows user) dropped the existing database, and created a new one With that database db2admin *does* have dbadm authority (directly, as shown by db2 get authorizations) and I could grant the connect privilege to my regular user. Thanks for your help Thomas |
