Re: Postgresql broken with Red Hat 9?

At the risk of stating the obvious, also check to make sure Postmaster
is listening on port 5432. To do this log in as root and run /sbin/fuser
-vn tcp 5432. If postmaster is not listed it may only be running with
unix sockets. This measn that you must pass the -i flag to postmaster
when it starts up.
