I am new to the Linux world and am trying to work with Perl files on Red Hat
9.0. I have installed the Perl Interface that came with Red Hat (DBD-Pg),
but I have been made aware that I need the PostgreSQL version. I am running
7.3.4 and would like some help on where to find an RPM for this interface
and how to properly install it.

Thanks for the help!!

Brad

DBD-Pg is the PostgreSQL version. (Hence the "Pg" in the name.) There
is nothing else you need (besides a decent Perl installation).
