I have just installed PostGres on to my Mandrake 9.2 system. I
installed using the RPMs on the MD install CDs.
I notice that when I start the PC the database server dosen't start
during boot even though there is a postgres file in '/etc/rc.d/init.d'
which I would have thought would have started the server automatically.
To start the server I type:
su
su postgres
postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
I have to be logged in as 'postgres' and not my normal user name to
start.
What do I need to do to get things back on track and start during boot ?

Use chkconfig ir Mandrake GUI tools to autostart the postgresql servers.
