Hi

I have a postgresql in my red hat linux machine which will be our webserver.
previously we had mysql in suse linux in another machine. so we are having
a new webserver now with postgresql. I want to transfer my tables in mysql
to postgresql so that I continue with my stuff in the new server.

I tried to search for the transfer of tables from mysql to postgresql
located on different machines, but could not figure out exactly how to
start and proceed.

could you please guide me through this process....

thank you
prashanthi

Download the postgresql source package, untar it, and look in the 
/contrib/mysql directory, or go to:

http://ziet.zhitomir.ua/~fonin/code/

and download the latest version there.

There is a section on converting from MySQL at the url below. http://techdocs.postgresql.org/

Feel free to come back and ask some more if you have any problems.
