Martin, Having just run this again, I can report that the conf files are deposited in the data directory when you run initdb.
Also, for the postgresql server to start, I must copy server.crt, server.key and root.crt from /var/lib/postgresql/8.1/main to the data directory, and change the owner of those files to postgres. Otherwise, no go. > dpkg -l 'postgres*' | grep ^ii I get postgresql-8.1, postgresql-client-8.1, postgresql-common, and postgresql-client-common. The first two are version 8.1.9-0ubuntu0.6.06. > lsb_release -d Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS > It does not happen on Ubuntu > Feisty/Gutsy and Debian Etch/unstable. For a database sever, I think most real database administrators would choose a long term support version over unstable!
