hello everyone!
 
I'm new to PostgresSQL and I am having trouble finding the 8.0.3RC. (for windows). I have tried teh FTP mirrors but the directory listings on those mirrors do not contain a folder for version 8.0.3. Many subfolders require a UID PWD, which I don't have.
 
The bittorrent download also wants some authentication and I find no link to information about that onteh download page or any of the other pages I checked out. (support)
 
Would some kind soul help me through this?

Wow, 8.0 isn't even out yet and you're looking for 8.0.3?


I think you misread something somewhere.  You are probably looking for
8.0rc3 (quite different from 8.0.3), which is the 3rd "release
candidate" for 8.0.


An rc3 installer does not seem to be available yet; there is an rc2
installer, however.  You can get that from one of the FTP mirrors
accessed from the "Download" page of the web site.  Look in the win32
directory after connecting to one of the mirrors.
