Re: Tcl_CreateSlave error (pg 7.1.2, RH 7.2)

Yes, thanks Tom, that works!

My last two messages have been rejected from the list:

<pgsql-general@postgresql.org>: Command time limit exceeded:
    "/usr/local/majordomo/bin/mj_email -r -d postgresql.org -l
pgsql-general"

so this one probably will be too;  you might need to post your own followup

Thanks much!
