How can I do this?

ALTER TABLE users OWNER TO smith

Isn't working.

Can anybody point me in the right direction? I can't find anything other
than this in the docs or on Deja.

Thanks!

Have you logged into Postgres as the System Administration account or your
account has system admin privelges??

create table test(number integer null);
CREATE
test=# \d
List of relations
Name | Type | Owner
------+-------+-------
test | table | vlad
(1 row)

test=# alter table test owner to nobody;
ALTER
test=# \d
List of relations
Name | Type | Owner
------+-------+--------
test | table | nobody
(1 row)

test=# select version();
version
-------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
