Try to shutdown postgre (using the init scripts), then, erase the socket
file manually, and run it again.. look for errors...

i never touched postgre as it's cobalt's stuff and i'm afraid they did
there somet things "the cobalt way" and touching would basically kill my
UI.

anyways, it *could be* that postgre was configured only to listen on a
tcp/ip socket, or only on a filesystem socket... if it was only for
tcp/ip, well, you'll need to read the man for it to know the parameters
you need to add/remove from cobalt's configuration...

HTH,
