It's just: include 'filename' So if you have a config file in the same directory as postgresql.conf, and you specify that it be included, it will be. If it's not in the same directory, give an absolute path. Note that if a setting in the include file is later specified in postgresql.conf after the include directive, it will override the setting in the include. But one example scenario you might wish to use is to leave postgresql.conf as it is, put an include directive on the bottom line to include another config file, and just use that to override settings in postgresql.conf. Another is that you may wish to keep contrib module configuration in their own files, so you can add include directives for each of those. -- Thom Brown Twitter: @darkixion IRC (freenode): dark_ixion Registered Linux user: #516935 EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
