It may not be necessary at all. But what I meant is I don't know what the default permissinos ar eon a shared mem/event object in the global namespace. On the naemd pipe it's "creator/owner full" (so the postgres account itself can issue kills), "administrators full" (so anybody who is admin on the box can) and "system full" (so the local system can issue them). If this is not the default on the other class of objects, we'll need to set specific permissions. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
