To find out whether these rights are granted to a user or to a group, use <Connection variable>.InfoServerRights or <Connection variable>.InfoDatabaseRights.

To modify the rights granted to a user or to a group of users, use <Connection variable>.ModifyServerRights or <Connection variable>.ModifyDatabaseRights.
