Does anyone know a good commercial application that does multi-master replication for postgres?

Thanks

PostgreSQL with MS Query?

From
Grant Rutherford
Date:
Hi there,

I'm trying to access my postgreSQL database using Excel (through MS
Query).  I've been reading a bit about ODBC and I'm pretty sure that
this is required.  Is there a way to see if this is set up already?  Am
I on the right track?  The database server is running redhat linux.

Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Grant

Hello,

  Yes ODBC will be required and unless you have installed it is not
configured. You can go
here:

   http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/psqlodbc/projdisplay.php

   For the OpenSource/Free version or here:

   http://www.commandprompt.com/

   For a commercial (with more features) version.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake

No, but if you find one, please tell me.

What is it you're trying to do exactly?  Multi-master replication is
typically very difficult, prone to lock up, and usually _very_
expensive.  But there are probably some tricks to accomplish some
kinds of tasks if you want them to be done.
