Обсуждение: Re: rc4, PostgreSQL-installer on WinXP: anybody can read, write and delete in data-dir

This permission is inherited from your Program Files folder, if you
install in the default location. If you install with the data on a
separate partition (which would be recommended for any larger
installation), it's inherited from whatever the parent permissions are
there.=20=20

Might be worthwhile to add a notice to the installation instructions
and/or FAQ about this. Will look into that.
