For "log on locally", you are safe to remove it after the install. It' sonly required for initdb. I'm not 100% sure on the "access from the network". I seem to recall there was a situation when it was needed by the general server, but I can't remember what it was:-) And I'm not sure it was there. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
