Make sure you also installed the main rpm. IOW, you want to have installed:
postgresql
postgresql-libs
postgresql-server
Now, as root, execute
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start
This script will create the initial database structure and start postmaster.
Now, find the file README.rpm-dist, which, on RedHat 6.2 will be in
/usr/doc/postgresql-7.1.1
Read this file, along with the main documentation, in HTML browsable form, in
/usr/doc/postgresql-7.1.1/html -- the README.rpm-dist file will explain how
to make postmaster be started on every boot up.
Hope that helps!
