Hi All,


Just installed postgresql-7.4.3 for the first time and all appears to have gone fine apart from :-

When I try to connect to a test database from a remote client the psql appears to connect fine
but it then drops straight back to the command prompt without any errors or messages.

I have enabled debugging but all I get on the client side is

bash-2.03$ psql -h ukl****** -d test -U kevin
bash-2.03$ DEBUG:  InitPostgres
bash-2.03$


And on the serverside I get

The server is running on a linux HA (Suse 9.0+DRBD+Heartbeat) and the client is a Solaris box Solaris 8,
I have also tried connecting from a linux client on a remote box.
Connecting locally works fine....

Any help would be much appreciated, I'm trying to get a new project off the ground :-)

Thanks in advance
