Hi
Haven’t posted to a Postgresql thread in over 5 years, had to leave linux behind due to company Windose needs.
Now with a Windose ver. Of Postgresql I need help again.
I can’t remember some basics and my Linux docs aren’t helping.
Using the PQinstaller, and I do want to install as a server to use on network. ( W/O Win Server)
During the Service Configuration Window section An Account Name, Domain Name and a Password are created.
The installer defaults to Account Name = postgres and Domain Name = MyDell.
Now MyDell is my computers Name.
Is there some reason the installer has chosen my Computer Name as the Domain Name and not my actual Network (Domain Name)?
Can I or should I use my actual network name?
Should the Postmaster be on a separate network?
Lastly, in windows do I use Root or do I create other users to access and create databases?
Sorry for so many questions. Windows Networking is very general on a peer to peer net work, I do not have Win Server.
However I Still have a Linux server running on network but I must get up to speed with the Postgresql Win version w/o Win Server.
