Hi,

I try to find how is it possible to connect 2 databases, with a symbolic 
link.

I have to use tables in another database to test user or other information.

Take a look at dblink in the contrib directory... This may do what you need

$db_conn1 = pg_connect("dbname=db1");
$db_conn2 = pg_connect("dbname=db2");
.....

You can't join two tables from different databases(, as far as i know :).
