I asked this in -general about ten days ago, but received no replies.
Can I redefine location of the UNIX domain socket file to be other
than /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432? The problem is that there is a /tmp cleaning
script on the Solaris system where Postgres is installed, which sweeps
away anything older than 24 hours. Right now I'm getting away by
having a cron job touch the file periodically, but this is not a nice
solution.
p.s. I'm sending this also to -bugs, because I think that the
location of the socket file should be configurable (at least at
compile time).
Many thanks,
