Joseph,

Two things wrong that I can see:

1) The driver class is now org.postgresql.Driver (not postgresql.Driver)
2) You only include one of the jar files in the classpath (the one that
corresponds to the version of java/jdbc you are running: jdbc1 = jdk1.1,
jdbc2= jdk1.2 and 1.3, jdbc3= jdk1.4

thanks,
--Barry
