Oh, thanks. So it may not be so serious. I was worried when I found that the locations the error message gave for old data and preserved data were both empty... I'll give it a try. <later> No problem apt-getting the libkrb5-17-heimdal package. I cannot log on to it 'FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host 192.168.x.y user foo database bar' and 'FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "somebody"', but I suppose that may be just a matter of rtfm to try once again to get my head round these aspects. Every time I sort them out it seems semi-intelligible, but months later when I break something again, I've entirely forgotten how they work... -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
