Re: [GENERAL] How can I set postmaster as a service

I already had postgresql file in /etc/rc.d/init.d.
I run the following ln commands as specified.
if I boot my system it is opening database. But failing while opening
database by remote host.
May be -i option is missing.

If I use the following line in postgresql file
su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -p
/usr/bin/postmaster -o '-p ${PGPORT}' start > /dev/null 2>&1" < /dev/null

I could able to start database but I could not able to connect through
remost host.

If I change the option -o to -i I am getting an error while starting
database itself.

su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -p
/usr/bin/postmaster -i '-p ${PGPORT}' start > /dev/null 2>&1" < /dev/null

How can I rectify this error.
