However, the value changes with the user that is logged in whenever I use 'initdb --show'. If I login as 'xy' the value is 'xy'. Shouldn't this be a fixed value in the cluster? Could you tell me, please? Thank you very much, Peter Seifert -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört? Der kann`s mit allen: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/multimessenger
