Long ago (PostgreSQL 7.0.x days, Red Hat Linux 7 days (there never was a Red Hat Linux 7.0, it went 7, then 7.1)) the RPM initscript had the embedded chkconfig directives set to have PostgreSQL ON for runlevels 3, 4, and 5, but it was decided to not do that but let the user do that, so the automation doesn't set it to ON for any runlevel. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu
