And to restore it? I would like to get ALL the data and properties possible, because if I have a problem, and I lost my current database, I can just restore it, and will be all exactly like was before. What is the best way? pg_dump? If yes, what options I need to use? Thanks a lot!! Eduardo S. Fontanetti ______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
