H-

Thanks for the reply.

I ftp'd into posrgresql.org but didn't find any src directory. 8^(

Are you saying that you went into this directory and downloaded a file that you
compiled on your system (using root) and it than was able to be called via JSP?
Or was there some other setup and README.txt file that came with it that you
had to use to set it up?

Any other thoughts on where I could find this file in some other location? How
big is this file? KB's or MB's? What's the name of the file? Do you know the
name?
I went to the website and found some ftp directories but nothing that looked
like what I was looking for. I did find a 'source' directory but it didn't have
an interfaces directory. 8^(

I'm using 6.5.3 postgres. Would it be easier to just dl the lastest and
greatest and install that? Would that be a valuable solution? Or would I still
need to locate this extra file and get it somewhere?

Thanks again for any further info.
