I do know that, I wrote the bit in the docs explaining that that's possible... But using replication connections that way in psql makes requires it to be invoked in a different way and makes it it impossible to specify the database name in a normal way etc. You can also run into commands that give you 'unexpected result status' errors and such. I don't think that's a good default interface. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
