Hi

Haven't posted to a Postgresql thread in over 5 years, had to leave linux
behind due to company Windose needs.

Now with a Windose ver. Of Postgresql I need help again.

I can't remember some basics and my Linux docs aren't helping.

Using the PQinstaller, and I do want to install as a server to use on
network. ( W/O Win Server)

During the Service Configuration Window section An Account Name, Domain Name
and a Password are created.

The installer defaults to Account Name = postgres and Domain Name = MyDell.

Now MyDell is my computers Name.

Is there some reason the installer has chosen my Computer Name as the Domain
Name and not my actual Network (Domain Name)?

Can I or should I use my actual network name?

Should the Postmaster be on a separate network?

Lastly, in windows do I use Root or do I create other users to access and
create databases?

Sorry for so many questions. Windows Networking is very general on a peer to
peer net work, I do not have Win Server.

However I Still have a Linux server running on network but I must get up to
speed with the Postgresql Win version w/o Win Server.
