Re: was database too old or corrupt error on debian ever solved: msg#00027

Subject: Re: was database too old or corrupt error on debian ever solved
Hi,

I just recalled a nifty "feature" of PostgreSQL on Debian. To increase security,
you had to be logged in as the postgres (or pgsql, don't recall the exact name)
user in order to do administrative stuff. Does anyone know whether MySQL on
Debian uses a similar trick these days?

regards,
Markus
