Well, I tried to add 'pgsql-8.2' dependency to the slony-I service
via the registry and that does not work, in fact, it screws it up.
I noticed that the postgresql service is started first before slony-I
but the problem here is that there is not enough time for the databases
to start up AND provide port access in time for slony-I to connect
to it so it fails. Does not slony-I have any retry connection option
settings in the configuration files? Did anyone get this sort of problem?

As it is, I have to first restart the postgresql service then the slony-I
service and everything works fine thereafter.
