Try "postgresql" instead of "postgres".
You could also use chkconfig to set up the service -- see `man
chkconfig`, but I think you want something like:
chkconfig --level 3 postgresql on
This would add postgresql as a service to be started for you when
booting to run-level 3.
To manually start the Postgres service, do:
/etc/init.d/postgresql start
