Hi,

I'm running postgres on a Linux server SuSE SLES.   When I run postgresql 
8.0.3, I get /tmp/.s.PGSQLl.5432 socket open with group and owner 
permissions.  The group permissions are the default group of the postgres 
account and the owner is postgres.  If I want to start postgres with a 
non-default group called db-admins or something is that an option?
