Ok, you're porting phorum to postgres. I've done the work before.
http://www.at4.net/phorum
Check the download page to get the sources.
And this is the sql for the table you want to create:
CREATE SEQUENCE forum_id_s INCREMENT 1 START 1;
CREATE TABLE forum (
id int4 DEFAULT nextval('forum_id_s') NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
name varchar(30),
email varchar(100),
topic varchar(50),
body text,
host varchar(50),
thread int4 DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
datestamp datetime DEFAULT 'now()' NOT NULL
);
