Oliver:

                Bingo!

                                 Gratefully,


                                                 -dlj.


PS: More generally, I'd still like to know what to do with the script
"postgresql start" which is in subdirectory /etc/rc.d/init.d/  of RH 6.2.
There are lines that look somewhat like Mike Mascari's suggestions, but
nothing right on.  Lamar Owen, are you out there somewhere?

                                                    -d.
