Hi, I'm sure this is a newbie question, but I can't seem to get traction via web searches... In the past, when I've installed postgresql using the ports collection, I haven't had to worry about this. I've built postgresql from source on FreeBSD (not using the ports collection) and now need to add: postgresql_enable="YES" to the rc.conf file so that when the machine is booted, the postmaster will start. Now, I need to understand the mechanics between: blah_blah_blah_enable="YES" and $ /usr/local/blah_blah_blah/bin/thingy_ctl -D /usr/blah_blah_blah/data start/stop/restart Since I need to be able to build outside the ports collection (other OSes apply), can someone please point me in the right direction for "hooking this up" Please?
