upgrade to Postgresql 8.x on a RedHat9 server? Currently I am using
Postgresql 7.3 but was planning on upgrading before I put the database
into production.

Hi Margaret,
Tom means that Redhat won't provide a update for Postgresql, that does
not mean you can't install it yourself.

I run RedHat EL 4.3(Postgresql is at 7.4.x on EL 4.3) at work and I run
8.1 on it, I just installed it myself.

Just realize that RedHat won't provide any support for 8.x on RHAS2.1. Pervasive would be happy to, though. :)

Incidentally, someone from Red Hat talked to me at Linuxworld about setting up some kind of partnership. Turns out he didn't know who Tom Lane was or where he worked. :)
