Thread: CentOS 5.6

Greetings,

I am new to linux and I am trying to connect from CentOS 5.6 to a window$ server
running PostgreSQL version 8.4.3. I get a message that I do not have the correct
drivers installed, I believe I have the 8.4 version installed.  Any suggestions will
be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan

How do you try to connect? There are several methods (psql, pgAdmin III,
JDBC driver...)

What is the exact message you get?

What do you get when you run:

   psql --version
   psql -h windowshost.mydomain.org --username=myusername mydatabase

What happens when you run:

   telnet windowshost.mydomain.org 5432
