Hi Jerry,

I restored my postgres databases/tables this morning. Guess what. I'm having trouble connecting to postgres outside the local network. I went back and read the pg_hba.conf file and it has some lines that can be comment out dealing with SSL. It also say something like if SSL has been built into your kernal. I'm thinking SSL may come compiled in the the Redhat kernal that is installed from the CDs. I think I would like to try and compile a new kernal and see if I can eliminate SSL.

I'm making a mirrow image backup right now just in case. I have the readme file that explain how to build a new kernal. Looks like Redhat has changed some of the paths.

I'm currently using the Grub loader to boot Linux. It seems like there was a thread on this some time back where grub or lilo might cause problems in a dual boot system. The readme file on building the a new kernal assumes I'm using the lilo loader to boot. I would like to go back to lilo so I can follow the instruction in the Readme file. Do you know if I do the following command it will write a new master boot record and default back to using lilo to perform the dual boot or is there something else I need to do to restore lilo as the default boot loader?

/sbin/lilo

Thanks

Jerry,

Never mind. I check /etc for lilo.conf and it was not there. I also did a search of the entire partition and no lilo.conf. Then I remembered that I could create a new Linux Loader by running an update off the distribution CD. The upgrade install now has a separate window addressing this issue, so I can choose which loader I want to use or whether to install new, update, or no loader, etc.

If you know of any issues with lilo or grub and a dual boot system, let me know.

Thanks
