Hi all,
  I am looking for a postgreSQL client for installing on a Solaris 8
machine. The basic idea is to use the client and retrive the data from
a database running on another machine without actually connecting to the
database server. So, I want to know where I can get the client for
solaris? I am assuming postgreSQL will run on solaris? I can make a
package from the source. By client, I mean the client libraries.

thanks,
Aravind

That makes no sense -- if you want to retrieve data from the database on
another machine, you need to connect to it.

Yes, PostgreSQL runs on Solaris. I believe you can install just the
command-line client (psql), by doing:

$ ./configure ...
$ make
$ make -C src/bin/psql install

Cheers,

Neil
