Right, when Postgres is installed as a package during the OS installation or
later installed as an RPM then its automatically available for use with the
service command.  My blog entry was more about building postgres from
source, because at the time I couldn't find a current version of Postgres as
an RPM.  Installing from source lacks some of the conveniences you get when
installed from RPM.
