Postgres Pain Points #3 postgres role

[support-tiger <support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Relatively minor.  All docs say to use "su - postgres" - it doesn't 
seem to work right with linux.  The difference in using the OS user 
postgres and the postgres user (role) postgres is confusing.  Even if we 
set the postgres password to "postgres", it doesn't accept the 
password.  With linux we have found that "sudo -u postgres psql" works.  
But not sure this is right or the best way.
