How exactly could it "close and reopen" them without losing their identity? And what makes /dev/null necessarily the right substitute? I don't think we should change this within Postgres. We removed logic associated with daemonization altogether in 9.2 --- it's the responsibility of the calling script to close any files it doesn't want left open. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
