For example, RHEL5 ships with PostgreSQL 8.1.8, and it will stick with PostgreSQL 8.1.X. This is their policy and I like it. But, for RHEL4, they have an application stack andit has a recent (8.1) version of PostgreSQL. You can check RHN for this. If you want to keep more up2date with Red Hat / Fedora / CentOS, you can use PGDG RPMs that are shipped through PostgreSQL FTP site and its mirrors. It has almost all PostgreSQL releases for all Red Hat / Fedora releases (sure, CentOS = Red Hat). http://www.PostgreSQL.org/ftp/binary Regards, -- Devrim GÜNDÜZ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support Managed Services, Shared and Dedicated Hosting Co-Authors: plPHP, ODBCng - http://www.commandprompt.com/
