Set syslog to 2 in postgresql.conf and adjust the other settings if needed, then make sure your syslog daemon is configured to put the messages where you want them. What is probably happening right now is that the postmaster is set to send log messages to stderr but the start script you are using is redirecting postmaster stderr to /dev/null. While you could modify the start script, I don't recommend it for production purposes because 7.3 doesn't have any support for rotating log files that way. syslog is the only production-grade logging approach in that version. regards, tom lane
