Corey,
This looks like it should work.
The only thing I can think of is that you need to export the classpath so
that it is visible outside of the .cshrc file?
what to you get when you execute
echo $CLASSPATH
The only other possibility is that you are using a real old version of the
driver. At one time the driver was in a package postgresql.Driver
try looking at the contents of the postgres char
jar -tvf postgresql.jar should list the contents.
Other than that your code looks like it should execute
Regards,
Dave
