Обсуждение: RPM postmaster -i ?

The docs say to startup, using postmaster -i (Internet?) switch - for TCP/IP
use.  They don't elaborate on where to properly implement postmaster -i.

Some of the places, I've uncovered where one *might* invoke postmaster -i
are:
    /etc/tc.d/init.d/postgresql
    pg_ctl
    pg_hba.conf
    CMDNAME

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like PostgreSQL won't even work
from another PC without postmaster -i ?  If so, I'm amazed at how vague the
docs are, regarding the proper place to implemement postmaster -i.  The docs
seem to assume that one is going to *manually* start PostgreSQL, rather than
auto-start it upon boot.  I'm also surprised that the RPM installation
doesn't setup postmaster -i.

Thanks for whatever light you might shed on this.  It's been a several-days
hunt, already - to find out.

Have you read the administrator's manual?  It gives tips on what to put
into start up scripts.

If this script is there, this is the one to use.  You may even have it
syumlinked in one of the rc#.d directories, and it should be automatically
starting at boot time.  This was probably installed by the RPMs.
