CREATE USER statement to create and configure  a database user,which is an account through which you can log into the database.--> I shoul issue : CREATE USER test;  ?!
--> please let me know.

Create the respective OS users inside the database as follows::
psql=# create user test; and then connect the PostgreSQL database using "test" user as follows::

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -p 5432 -U test -d postgres

Hi Sirs,

I would like more than one OS user can access the same DB in the same cluster.

For a user like postgres I had these commands:

# adduser postgres
# mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
# chown postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
# su -postgres
$ ./initdb -D /usr/*/data  --> here login as an postgres in terminal
$ ./postgres -D /usr/*/data --> here login as an postgres in terminal, too.

So when I want to access or issue the command :
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql postgres  as an another OS user,   what should I do?!
