Help

Hi,
I am using Redhat linux 9. At the time of instllation i omitted the
option of SQL server. AFter installing Linux 9 i started installing
postgresql 7.4.5.

After installing i am unable to enter into the path

root$ su postgres
su: user postgres does not exist

Note: At the time of installing itself i get problem while setting permission as
root& chown postgres.postgres /usr/local/pgsql/
chown: `postgres.postgres': invalid user

Even if i tried the postgres --version i am getting output as

root$ postgres --version
postgres (PostgreSQL) 7.4.5

Please help me to enter into $ su postgres
