Hi again, I've got 7.0.3 installed and running if the results of ps ax | grep pgsql are to be believed! My question: Is the correct comparative directory mapping as follows?? Non RH RH /usr/local/pgsql/bin /usr/bin /var/lib/pgsql /usr/local/pgsql Should I set up the path (in my profile) to point to /usr/bin or /usr/local/pgsql ? I am presuming the former. Slowly but surely! Thanks Bob Hartung
