A user with sufficient privileges to run su is required (hint: you can use root). This command switches to the Postgres user, creates a Postgres role called `srnd`, and prompts for a password. For illustrative purposes, we will use `srnd` as the password.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Setting up postgres (as root):
|
# su - postgres -c "createuser --pwprompt --createdb --encrypted srnd"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# become postgres user
|
|
||||||
su postgres
|
|
||||||
# spawn postgres admin shell
|
|
||||||
psql
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You'll get a prompt, enter the following:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
CREATE ROLE srnd WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'srnd';
|
|
||||||
CREATE DATABASE srnd WITH ENCODING 'UTF8' OWNER srnd;
|
|
||||||
\q

For demo purposes we'll use these credentials.

These are default values, please change them later.

These credentials assume you are going to run using a user called `srnd`, if your username you plan to run the daemon as is different please change `srnd` to your username.

It's easiest to connect to Postgres using role-based authentication. In this case, our Linux user `srnd` matches up with our Postgres role `srnd`, so role-based authentication can take place. If you're running SRNDv2 as a different user (e.g. `nntpchan`), you will need to create a role that matches that user using the command above.
