FWIW (after a quick glance at the default script and the manpage), "-w" is the pg_ctl option that makes it wait. I just take it out; it only takes PG a few seconds to initialize, so it's ready to go long before something would need to connect to it. It could also be said that having -w implemented as invoking psql to try to connect as the DB superuser assuming no password is a rather inappropriate way of going about it, but that's another can of worms. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unix Systems Administrator | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Specializing in FreeBSD | http://www.over-yonder.net/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
