Hi all!
I have installed Mandr
ake 9.0. and postgresql is installed automatically. 
When I start postgresql by the command: 
postmaster -i
have a error message:

The server must be started under an unprivileged user id to prevent
a possible system security compromise.  See the documentation for
more information on how to properly start the server.   

With Mandrake 8.0, I do nothing to config postgresql. So what I can do to 
config it now? Please help me! thank you very much.
