[vox-tech] can't remove postgresql

[Hai Yi]

hey, peter:

thanks! I checked using dpkg, it didn't return anything, so all point to the
direction that postgresql is not there; but why nmap insists that postgresql
is open? Also, i start tomcat but it's not reported by nmap. I'll send the
question to nmap's forum and see what they say.

thx again!
Hai
