Thread: pg_shadow

Hello all,
    I recently installed postgressql on my Red Hat Linux 6 machine and
works okay, but when I try to log into psql from any account other that
postgres I get and error stating the user isn't in  pg_shadow.  What the
heck is that and how do I add the user?

thanks,

Tyson Oswald

never mind, duh!  I had to create the user in the DB first, boy do I feel
stupid, ya'd think I'd know that by now.  Thanx for reading and laughing at
my post.
