the standard versions of postgres for RHEL/CentOS leave two sets

Hi John,
Thanks for the heads up on that second log. I was focusing on:
/var/lib/pgsql/9.2/pgstartup.log
as that's what I found in the init.d script. It however was empty.
The key was in the second log in:
/var/lib/pgsql/9.2/data/pg_log/*
which pointed to a typo in pg_hba for host ip specification.
Clearly the typo had not been through a restart yet and when I
restarted the machine it hit the bug. That was then a simple fix as
the IP address was missing its CDIR mask.
Cheers,
-pete
