I guess I was confusing this with the --with-krb-srvnam configure directive, and expecting that it ought to convert that from a frozen-at-configure value into a run-time-configuration variable. What is the relationship of these two values, anyway? The documentation additions are pretty poor in both proposed patches; they do nothing to clear up any confusion. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
