Hello, I’m using pg 9.1.3 on CentOS 5 and have a few slave databases setup using the built in streaming replication. On the slaves I set the “listen_addresses” config option to an ip address for a virtual alias on my network interfaces. The host has an address of 10.1.1.10, and there is a virtual alias of 10.1.1.40 that the slave postmaster binds to. When the slave makes it connection to the master to start replication the source address for the connection is the host address, not the virtual alias address. Connections appear to come from 10.1.1.10, instead of the slave postmaster address of 10.1.1.40. This seems like a bug to me. I could understand that if the postmaster is listening on all interfaces, then it should use whatever the IP is for the for the host, but in an instance where the postmaster has been configured to listen to a specific address it seems like the call to start the replication should be passed that address so connections come from the slave postmaster’s IP, instead of the host. Is there a config option that can be used to adjust this? I've looked in the docs, but haven't found one yet. Is this perhaps a bug, or lack of feature?
