Hello again,

I did some research on your suggestions with Slony-I and logshipping, one
major drawback we just realized is that the server where postgres will sit
on runs Windows XP. Our client has this techie that only knows how to manage
a windows box, and he runs some other services that we cannot port to linux.
Is there anything similar to slony-I that we could run on windows? 

On the install notes of Slony 1.1.5 we didn't find any information about
compiling and running Slony-I on windows and we know that it will be
available in version 1.2 

Best Regards,
Fotis
