Dear list

Is is possible to  copy /var/lib/pgsql from one computer  to another and
able login like the 1st computer?
I have a production computer  and a test computer.

According to some literature, this can be done.  However, I found that
the database and user missing when
use wiht psql.

Currently, I am uisng RH Linux 8.0 wiht Postgres 7.2.2.

Thank you.
