For the sake of clarity, I changed the group ownership of the /var/log/postgresql directory per the instructions in your first post. I had not changed the ownership before that, so the ownership that showed up in the log is how it got created in either an install or an update.

I have not manually changed the ssl-cert-snakeoil.key's ownership or permissions, and the output you requested is:

[code]
~:ls -l /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
-rw-r----- 1 root ssl-cert 887 2008-09-12 16:55 /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
[/code]

Thanks, and hope that helps.
