I'm a newbie to all things linux and have the following problem
running red hat linux 9 i log into my pc, change to su - and type the password, all is ok and i get root@localhost
I'm trying now to configure postgresql, which i installed with linux and it says to su - postgres, i do this but instead of getting postgres@localhost i get -bash-2.05b$ , is this right? or do i need to reinstall something / update something?
Using the graphical interface i've tried to add postgres as a user as it doesnt show, but it says user postgres already exists.
An help would be greatfully received.
Thanks
