However, unless you are very brave and know what you are doing, I'd recommend using pg_basebackup to setup a standby, not rsync. You can even use the -C and -S options of pg_basebackup to create the slots for you, and many other pg_basebackup's nice options. -- Victor Sudakov VAS4-RIPE http://vas.tomsk.ru/ 2:5005/49@fidonet
