Please help. if postgresql came without psql as a front-end, i'd venture to say something got borked during your download. (of course, being a debian user i'm a bit pampered when it comes to things "working out of the box"...) try psql<TAB> and see if it's in your command line. if not, try locate psql or find / -name psql -print probably the most trouble you'll have, once you can communicate with the postmaster backend server, is in your first connection. $ su # su postgres $ psql it comes set up to allow user 'postgres' to connect; so once you connect as postgres, you can set up other users, so you can connect directly. (clear as mud, right? maybe another iteration and someone else will help straighten this out.) also see the documentation in the user lounge at postgresql.org ! -- americans should never read anything so subversive as what's at http://www.salon.com/people/col/pagl/2001/03/21/spring/index1.html [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sourceforge.net/projects/newbiedoc -- we need your brain! http://www.dontUthink.com/ -- your brain needs us! ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
