Randy;

After you install Sql-ledger, be sure to get the patch and apply that 
too. I neglect that step and had some slight problems.

I installed Sql-Ledger about 2 weeks ago. To create the user, the 
command to it is:

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createuser -d -P myuser

-d means that this user can create data bases
-P means that you will be prompted for a password
(My system is Red Hat 7.1, but since I installed PostgreSQL afterwards 
from sources, my path may be different from yours).

If you make a mistake just use:

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/dropuser myuser

You can get more details from 
http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?app-createuser.html

After that it was reall easy. I connetced with the admin user to 
http://your.url/sql-ledger/admin.pl (you have to set up the web server 
to recgnize the url this way) and went into Pg Database Administration. 
There I created a data base for each "company" I plan to use, using the 
user created previously. No problem at all. This set up all the tables 
and created a set of accounts. Then I went in and changed the admin 
password. Finally I created some users for each "company" (database). 
Then it was ready to go.
