klint,

   I removed the 'stale' .pid file, then manually started the postmaster (su
postgres -c 'postgres -D /var/lib/pgsql/data &') rather than using the
Slackware startup script (/etc/rc.d/rc.postgresql). That command line is in
the 'start' section of the script so I have no idea why it didn't work that
way. Sigh.

   Still no access to localhost/sql-ledger/login.pl and that's critical for
me.
