If you don't {have/want to use} shared storage, you can use WAL
replication:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/warm-standby.html

There are two tools that I can suggest for this. Walmgr:

http://pgfoundry.org/projects/skytools/

or pitrtools:

https://projects.commandprompt.com/public/pitrtools/

If you want to use shared storage, I'd suggest using Red Hat Cluster
Suite or such. 

http://www.gunduz.org/download.php?dlid=142

is the link to the presentation that I made 4 years ago about this. We
have customer here who is using RHCS+PostgreSQL 8.4 on 4 servers, which
use shared storage and they failover each other whenever one of them
goes down.

You can also use Slony-I or Londiste, too.

Please note that 9.0 will ship with major features for this.

-HTH.
