I scratched around some more, found doc/pgpool-en.html and my ignorance has been somewhat lessened.
My previous config was almost right except for: pgpool2_hostname = '' #backend_data_directory0 #backend_data_directory1 and my Linux distro had assigned hostname 'slave1' to localhost, on which Pg wasn't LISTENing at time... a deal-killer :P Regards Henry -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
