Please use the 'tcpip_socket' line in postgresql.conf instead of -i.  When the 
initscript is updated the next time you upgrade PostgreSQL, you will lose 
your -i.  But postgresql.conf will not get this treatment, and it is the 
recommended way of doing this in the RPM environment.  At least it is by me, 
but what would I know?  All I do is maintain the RPMs....
