Both of these are not always correct - they might well have configured a listening address but we were unable to bind to it, although in that case a warning would have already been issued. To be strictly correct either we need to use a flag to distinguish the these cases, or we need an error message that contemplates both cases. cheers andrew ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
