I'm running the sample pgbench replication from the docs. I built Pg 
and slony from freebsd ports. slony is 1.0.2, freebsd 4.10 with Pg 
7.4.5.

I'm having an issue with running the slon daemon. I got it to work on a 
FreeBSD 5.3beta system with Pg 7.4.5 just fine. What happens on FreeBSD 
4.10 is when I run slon either as the client or the master it stops 
after printing "CONFIG main: local node id = 1" or id=2 for the slave.

I turned on logging of all queries, and the only thing that slon 
queries is this:

Sep 17 10:53:25 staging postgres[4033]: [2-1] LOG:  duration: 2.163 ms  
statement: select last_value::int4 from 
"_slony_example".sl_local_node_id

Then the slon process sits in a "poll" state accumulating no CPU.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?  All my production boxes are FreeBSD 
4.10, and I'm pretty sure Jan is using FreeBSD 4, too...
