I just went through this yesterday. This is what worked for me: POSTGRES_INCLUDE='/usr/local/pgsql/include' POSTGRES_LIB='/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lssl' that '-lssl' seems to make the difference. Mind you, that may cause some side effect that I'm not aware of. cf. http://www.mail-archive.com/dbi-users@perl.org/msg14684.html good luck, dha -- David H.
