Certainly - I believe the Debian packages might support this natively now, but in any case so long as you compile from source it is straight-forward. You'll need to specify unique values for: 1. binaries 2. data ($PGDATA) 3. port for internet connection (default is 5432) Worth searching the archives for this, since this question was asked by someone else a few weeks ago. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
