I am currently running Postgresql on an FC4 server.

There are several RPM packages you can install depending on if you just want 
to access a databases (on another computer) or also setup the server to 
create/access a database on your computer.

To install posgresql version 8.0.3
# yum install postgresql
# yum install postgresql-server
