Re: PgAdmin question - superuser

Hi Susan,

PgAdmin stores information about the database in pgadmin_* tables in the
database itself. It creates these tables the first time it connects,
and this is why you need to log in as the PostgreSQL supervisor first
time around.

Hope thats helpful.

:-)

Regards and best wishes,
