Hi David, sorry bout that. Agreed: bad form. Here's the page:
Thank you for your help. I don't understand what you mean but "trust basis" and "don't listed on TCP/IP sockets by default" cause I'm really not that informed. I know python programming, basics on DB design, but very little on networking and SQL.
I'm really just trying to learn new stuff and I might be way over my head but I just wanted to create a DB and start populating it with some data and then mess around with it so I can learn. I'm interested in developing my own text analysis tools off of my own emails in Outlook.
Thanks again.

Hi Postgres,My installation of Postgress 9.6 did not include any setting of a SuperUser password so I'm at a loss.Do I have a bad installation?I got it here:I'm running Windows 7 in 64 bit VM on a Mac Pro.I'm new to this stuff ok? Please go easy on me :-)Haven't used this particular install method but the Apt packages I use don't setup a password but instead allow for localhost connections on a trust basis - and don't listed on TCP/IP sockets by default either. I suspect that this installer is similar.Also, I personally find it to be bad form to link directly to a page that starts downloading a 120MB software executable when you navigate to it. Wasn't there a landing page with information that you could have linked to instead?David J.
