I'm trying to migrate a db off of an older version of Postgres on an aging linux server onto one of the new FreeBSD machines I installed when I arrived. A lot of the scripts and the like used the maintain the db are dependent on the postgres username and a specific directory on the drive. Now I don't really feel like rewriting all of this old code right now so I'm looking for someone who can tell me how to install the PostgreSQL 7 port with a different username and database directory than the standard /usr/local/pgsql. Otherwise I'll probably end up just compiling it from source and I always hesitate to lose package management. -- Brandon D.
