After spending a fair amount of time exploring tinyerp on Linux and searching 
in the forums I can't find any info about the proper (or recommended) user to 
use for starting the tiny server.

It appears I can start it as any user, OR as root, OR as the postgres user.  In 
each case the ability for a client to connect to the server is affected.  The 
databases that are presented to the client are different and of course the user 
logins are different.

Starting the tiny server as root seems a bad idea from a security standpoint.  
I would prefer a less privileged user for the tiny server user.

Also, I'm fairly new to the postgres db but have had plenty of experience with 
other db's.  The relation of postgres user <> tiny server user <> client user 
is a bit murky to me.  

Am I missing something in the docs, the forums and the wiki?  Any enlightenment 
or pointers on this subject would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
