Reading the message that starts this thread I note the problem is underspecified. We have three properties of the provider: a. You have superuser priveledges on your database b. You have a shell where you can compile programs c. Your provider has instlled the postgresql-contrib package With either a&b or a&c you're home. However, without a you're stuffed. What I want to know is: does the situation where you have only c but not b or a happen often? Because that we *can* do something about. Or are we dealing primarily with providers where you have none of the above?
