I am curious though, I saw a posting from Tom saying to try running /usr/bin/postgres -V. When I do this, I do not get any results. So I am wondering if the postgres rpms might be having a problem? I have not changed my procedures, and this is exactly how I installed and setup 8.1.0. When I run the test on my 8.1.0 box I get: [postgres@editstapp1 ~]$ /usr/bin/postgres -V postgres (PostgreSQL) 8.1.0 On my 8.1.1 box I get: [postgres@edidb9 ~]$ /usr/bin/postgres -V [postgres@edidb9 ~]$ Thanks for your help, Chris
