* pgAdmin interface on Windows communicating with a PostgreSQL data base on Linux.

I downloaded the ODBC Driver version 6.3.250 (v06-30-0250) from
www.insightdist.com and installed it on my machine, which runs Windows
NT ver.4.
I want to use a windows interface called pgAdmin which I downloaded from
<www.vale-it.demon.co.uk/freeware/pgadmin> and installed on my machine.
I've made a DSN entry on my machine which points to a Postgres (version
6.3) database which sits on a Linux server which is running RedHat v5.2.
When I launch pgAdmin and try to connect to the server database, pgAdmin
complains by saying that the datasource is not configured to use the
PostgreSQL version 6.4 communications protocol. Then I have to cancel
the program.
What's missing? What did I or my colleague who configured Postgres on
the Linux server do wrong? Please help.

Sounds like the version of pgAdmin you have needs to use the postgres 6.4
protocol.
The version of the odbc driver you have is only for 6.3 postgres.
(6-30-0250)
What protocol is your backend running? i.e., what version of Postgres do
you have?

The current version of pgAdmin *must* be used with v6.4.x PostgreSQL due
to the layout of the system tables. Unfortunately, due to a little
short-sightedness on my part, I do not have copies of previous versions
of pgAdmin. This will not be the case when 6.5 PostgreSQL is released.
Regards,
Dave.
