Check out the docs provided by postgres..It should be in /usr/share/doc/postgresql-x-x, if you have installed the proper rpm... Its very much comprehensive and should get you started with almost everything... Read the section on the privilige system..and after reading you know know how to edit pg_hba.conf file to allow user based on passwords.. You need to create a new database to work on..Postgres does have some database called template0 and template1..but this databases for internal use by the postgres system to maintain its system tables. postgres is the default user..you can create new users, database using createuser, createdb binaries...Or issuing sql commands thru the psql client interface. -- G.Vinubalaji MultiTech (()) Software Systems ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
