After being a detector I found that
[root@samba ~]# rpm -qa|grep -i postgres
postgresql-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-python-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-jdbc-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-tcl-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-server-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-libs-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-docs-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-odbc-7.3-8.1.tlc
postgresql-pl-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-test-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
postgresql-contrib-7.4.5-3.1.tlc
[root@samba ~]#

no other pg installation except the pgsql for windows in samba folder which I
think it isn't matter ,is it?
No other  pg being run.
[root@samba ~]# ps ax|grep postmaster
 2228 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/postmaster -p 5432 -D /var/lib/pgsql/data
 3308 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep postmaster
[root@samba ~]#

Is it possible that it is related to pg_ident.conf ?

Any comment please.
