on running initdb on my redhat 5.9 linux box with postgresql 6.5.1 i get
the following error:

postgres@server2 [~]# initdb
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input
to create the template database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create
the global classes.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based
authentication control file.

We are initializing the database system with username postgres
(uid=1003).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.
