WOW, thats a long time to wait :) It's unfortunate that not people use it, because it is a very good database from what I've seen, and I'm no guru :) Have you considered the possibilty of unixODBC/iODBC, or an ODBC manager of sorts? I would have thought that it would be easier to point it to an OdBC manager and let it take care of the specific driver details, or is there something else I am missing :) > > If you want the functions, and you can code c, you should copy the > needed code from vmysql.c to pgsql.c and vmysql.h to vpgsql.h then > adjust the queries as needed to work with PostgreSQL.

I did manage to get a little further with the sql logging option, it appears that the "sqlBufUpdate" issue was a typo, because it is defined in vpgsql.c but is defined as "SqlBufUpdate". I just changed the 2 places in vauth.c to be an uppercase S and it compiled further, now I'm getting the following error: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/sfw/bin/gcc -I/usr/sfw/include -Wall -o vchkpw vchkpw.o md5.o hmac_md5.o libvpopmail.a -L/usr/lib -lpq -lcrypt Undefined first referenced symbol in file PGresultStatus libvpopmail.a(libvpopmail_a-vauth.o) ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors.
