I have come across 3 files that need to be configured so far:

        pg_hba.conf
        postmaster.opts
        postgresql.conf

Are there any other ones?  What should be changed on these?

thanks.
Joel

P.S.  I am a real newbie.  thank you very much for your help.

I don't have a data/postgresql.conf file.
But I do have a /usr/share/pgsql/postgresql.conf.sample file.

should I copy and rename this file with out the .sample or should I place a copy in a 
/data directory somewhere?

thanks.

for all db admin tasks login as the user postgres, don't use root.
Don't set a password for postgres ( the default doesn't allow login ),
use root to become postgres:  su - postgres

Now, logged in as postgres, edit data/postgresql.conf and change
#tcpip_socket = false
to
tcpip_socket = true

You may need to change data/pg_hba.conf too.

When creating users ( postgres: createuser username ), I allow them to
create databases, and then I create what I need with that user so he's
the owner of db, not postgres.
