This would work in the case where change_ugid or $< are called/changed right after a fork, but not in the cases where a program temporarily drops privileges to run some code and then gets them back. So for calling pg_ctl in particular, su will work fine indeed. Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
