Subject: [ADMIN] How can i start up POSTMASTER from unprivilege account

Hello All

I have an account in our cluster. This is a normal linux use.

Our administrator have set up postgres there. But he have n't start up the postgreSQL server in the cluster.

Can anyone tell me how can I start up the postmaster and from an user space. Where should i need to configure. As getting administrative privilege cannot be possible as it is in an university.

Pls tell me at your earliest. I am very new to postgreSQL.

Pls help me out.

Regards

Shayer
