hi. i'm installing postgres and have a few questions... i can login/su as the user 'postgres' and then 'postmaster -i -p 5432 -D /var/lib/psql/data/'. this starts the postgres app, and i can access it from a website. however, if i attempt to do 'service postgresql start' while i'm 'root', the postgres db/app still starts, but i'm unable to connect to it from the website. the same thing occurs if i try to start the postgres app from the 'gnome' gui... the website tries to access the db as user 'gforge'. this user is different than the user 'postgres' or the user 'root'. as i said, this works if i start postegres from the command line as user 'postgres'. any ides/thoughts/etc... thanks bruce bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ps. im unable to use the 'services postgresql start' as user 'postgres'.
