A understanding of client-server system administration is a requirement
for successful installation. If fictious users, adduser, port assignment,
/etc/services, placing configuration environment variables in system-wide
login scripts, and /etc/profile), are familiar to you, integration is a
straightforward 30min task. If these are unfamiliar, I recommend the
"How to ... install ..." chapter from any book in the O'Reilly & Associates,
Inc. line of system administrator books (e.g. chap. 4 of sendmail
ISBN 1-56592-056-2).
> MPSQL is a very nice GUI front-end for SQL work.
What is MPSQL?
Where can one get MPSQL?
I have been searching for a web <-> sql interface for the purpose
of developing an easy-to-use, dependable (= double-entry) accounting system.
One of the potential methods is to use JDBC, but I haven't been able to
compile it, and it seems insupportably large (>11M).
Have you been able to compile JDBC for postgres?
Where did you get libXp.so?
Where did you get javac?
host: Dell Dimension XPS-133c
cpu: Pentium i586-133
os: linux-2.0.35
browser:Communicator-5.0 (netscape java-aware)
javac: jdk-1.1.6
Thank you for your time,

Three professors (a physicist, a chemist, and a statistician) are called in
to see their dean. Just as they arrive the dean is called out of his office,
leaving the three professors there. The professors see with alarm that there
is a fire in the wastebasket.
The physicist says, "I know what to do! We must cool down the materials
until their temperature is lower than the ignition temperature and then the
fire will go out."
The chemist says, "No! No! I know what to do! We must cut off the supply of
oxygen so that the fire will go out due to lack of one of the reactants."
While the physicist and chemist debate what course to take, they both are
alarmed to see the statistician running around the room starting other
fires. They both scream, "What are you doing?"
To which the statistician replies, "Trying to get an adequate sample size."
