The rserv code is still under contrib/ in the 7.3.x tarballs, as far
as I know.

rserv is the little cousin of eRServer, which is still a commercially
supported project. As far as I know, however, nobody is working on
the free code.
dbmirror is also in contrib/. It's free. Some people have had good
luck with it, I understand. I believe it is still being developed.
I don't know that there's a lot of development to do. It uses the
primary key on a table, and multiple-column primary keys are not
supported AFAIK. I'll bet you could modify the code to use some
other single-column unique-indexed not null field. I haven't tried.

As far as I know, Postgres-R isn't ready for production use.
Experiments with it, and reports of success and failure, would surely
be welcome.
But is your question phrased correctly? You say "from two different
hosts on the same network". Does that mean you want two master
databases, with one slave shared? Or do you mean two machines, one
master and one slave? The former may be impossible with anything at
the moment.
