Thread: how to start postgresql server ( or postmaster ) automatically

I have installed the postgresql in a Linux 6.2 machine.  Everything
seems to be working.  However, after rebooting the system, I have to
manually start the postmaster.
I found that there is postgresql under /etc/rc.d/init.d.

How can I set up the machine so that it will automatically restart
postmaster after reboot?

Thanks

chkconfig --level 35 postgresql on
