It seems to. What is more puzzling is that the script even checks for whether or not "$(NETWORKING)= "no" && exit 0" which sounds like it ought to be doing the right thing. Yet PGAccess won't start, except with Oliver's cunning workaround -- suggesting that postmaster is not running in Net mode. How can this be? Isn't this a contradiction of some sort? -dlj.
