wrong syntax, slmost wrong direction.

the postgresql rpm should automatically do the
chkconfig --add postgresql
(notice the double -)
and then you wnat to make sure that it's running at runlevels 3 and 5

chkconfig --level 35 postresql on

also, if you're a CLIaphobe, do this:

(start/redhat/whatever) -> system settings -> server settings -> services

you can enable and disable through that.
