Martin, Yes, I agree with you about security. Unfortunately, nothing in the error messages suggested a security issue, and I really didn't understand the T v t thing, other than it worked. I reacted to the apparent resolution with t.
I use ubuntu 6.10. I was following this ( http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/tutorial-start.html) comment from an Ubuntu user, posted on a postgresql site. That was before finding your Ubuntu page. I followed the sequence successfully down to ( pg_ctl -w -l server.log start -o "-c listen_addresses= -c unix_socket_directory=$LOCAL_DB"), when the process failed repeatedly. I could not start with pg_ctl or postmaster. I couldn't create a db because I didn't have a role, and I couldn't create a role because I didn't have postmaster running. And I couldn't get postmaster started. Then I found your information, followed your process, found the t v T issue, applied it, and everything then worked perfectly. Maybe I've been misled by a sloppy work-around.
