Worked a treat, thanks

now, if I do
#createuser kevin
from the command line it seems ok..
but when I try
[kevin@anthem file_db]$ psql kevin
psql: FATAL 1:  Database "kevin" does not exist in the system catalog.

How do I create the database from kevin

In MySQL I would do something like
mysqladmin create <dbname> -u root -p

Kind regards
Kevin
