IIRC Red Hat 7.2 shipped with PostgreSQL 7.1.3. Thus, edit
/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf to uncomment the line about tcpip_socket
and make it true instead of false. Then restart with 'service postgresql
restart' (as root). This replaces the need to edit the
/etc/init.d/postgresql script to add a '-i' to the pg_ctl line.
