I just jumped in on this thread so I'm not sure where you're looking for the
logging, but postgreSQL has the following option when building (from
'./configure --help'):

--enable-syslog enable logging to syslog

I saw that you're installing from RPM's so this won't help and I'm not even
sure that this is the logging about which you're talking, but thought I'd
post just in case!

Cheers,
Craig

Well, I'm not sure. I can't recall checking that in the startup script, but
I
think it's not there. Any way, why would the instalation make the entries in

the logroutate config files and then have a startup script that won't do
logging? I'm using the normal startup script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/.

Saludos... :-)
