well i'm in :-) whew!!!!!!
likely i missed reading howto somewhere in docs dunno regarldess i got in via:
from console:
su postgres
postmaster -i -D /usr/local/data ( i was getting can't connect tcp/ip error
before so i put in the -i trigger as suggested )
then I started pgaccess [database name]
then username/password and whala..
kewl now i can get down and dirty with the business at hand.....:)
