The output above contains the main information.
Start PostgreSQL:
postgresql-10 | * /run/postgresql: creating directory postgresql-10 | * /run/postgresql: correcting owner postgresql-10 | * Starting PostgreSQL 10 ... [ ok ]
Add the SQL server to autostart:
* service postgresql-10 added to runlevel default
Postgres user configuration
Set the postgres user password:
psql -U postgres
psql (10.3) Type "help" for help. postgres=# \password Enter new password: Enter it again: postgres=# \q
Database access configuration
Configure the access to the SQL server, so that local calls only be allowed, originated from the local network 192.168.0.0/24:
/etc/postgresql-10/pg_hba.conf
# TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all all password # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 password host all all 192.168.0.0/24 password # IPv6 local connections: #host all all ::1/128 trust # Allow replication connections from localhost, by a user with the # replication privilege. #local replication all trust #host replication all 127.0.0.1/32 trust #host replication all ::1/128 trust
Specify IP addresses to be listened to by the PostgreSQL, comma-separated:
/etc/postgresql-10/postgresql.conf
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # CONNECTIONS AND AUTHENTICATION #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # - Connection Settings - listen_addresses = '192.168.0.1,127.0.0.1' # what IP address(es) to listen on; # comma-separated list of addresses; # defaults to 'localhost'; use '*' for all # (change requires restart)
Note
If the server needs to be accessed from all network interfaces, set "*" instead of IPs.
Restart the database server:
postgresql-10 | * Stopping PostgreSQL 10 (this can take up to 92 seconds) ... [ ok ] postgresql-10 | * /run/postgresql: correcting mode postgresql-10 | * Starting PostgreSQL 10 ... [ ok ]

Exampe: create a database and a database user
Let's create a database, called dbtest and a user, called test to work with it:
Password for user postgres: psql (10.3) Type "help" for help. postgres=# create database dbtest; CREATE DATABASE postgres=# create role test with login; CREATE ROLE postgres=# \password test Enter new password: Enter it again: postgres=# grant connect, create on database dbtest to test; GRANT postgres=# \l dbtest List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collate | Ctype | Access privileges --------+----------+----------+------------+------------+----------------------- dbtest | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.utf8 | en_US.utf8 | =Tc/postgres + | | | | | postgres=CTc/postgres+ | | | | | test=Cc/postgres (1 row) postgres=# \q
The database and the database user have been created.
You can now check the user:
Password for user test: psql (10.3) Type "help" for help. test=> \q
