No, it's a directory with various "init-like" scripts. In "premium hosting environments," root access is restricted to the site operators, so PostgreSQL doesn't get started up from /etc/init.d. Instead, PostgreSQL and other services get invoked by custom "init scripts" in a custom "init directory." -- let name="cbbrowne" and tld="ntlug.org" in name ^ "@" ^ tld;; http://www.ntlug.org/~cbbrowne/sap.html "I am a bomb technician.
