If you've installed dblink then somewhere on your system should be
a file named README.dblink.  How to find that file depends on the
platform: on many Unix-like systems you can use "locate" or "find",
or if you installed dblink via a package then you could use the
package management tool to display a list of files that it installed.

I'd mention that doing joins between databases isn't a good idea
but it looks like you've already had that discussion in the recent
"Multiple DB join" thread.
