Hey there,
 
(using postgres 6.5.0 - on Red Hat Linux)
 
I have built a small application which has a table for unique identifiers with a column of type int4.
 
This has one added to it each time a new key is required.  I am a little worried that at some point when the limit of int4 is reached the system will fall over.  Is this the case or is there a work around.
 
 
Thanks for any help.

Take Shay's advice, and then upgrade. 6.5 is a world away from what you can have
