Re: new PostgreSQL user question

The documentation is pretty complete. Try reading the INSTALL file.

Try looking in the /contrib directory for the startup script. You should edit
it to match your service username.

Don't forget to do 'postmaster -i' if you're using JDBC or want to allow
external access.

Enjoy!
