Please edit /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf instead. This is documented
in the README.rpm-dist shipped with the RPMs. If the documentation in the
README is insufficient, please let me know where I need to correct and
improve it. But editing the initscript is not necessary -- and, in fact,the
next time you upgrade your RPM installation, your careful edits will be
overwritten as the newer initscript is put into place....
To find the README, execute the following:
rpm -ql postgresql | grep rpm
I have considered making the default back to TCP/IP listening -- but I am
inclined not to do so for security's sake (if postmaster isn't listening it
can't be portscanned) -- and, besides, on a from-source install the default
is to not listen over TCP/IP.
Again, this behavior is documented in the friendly README.rpm-dist shipped in
the main postgresql rpm.
