Hi all. I was wondering if it's possible for a trigger to perform operations
on a database on different server? I saw somewhere that there's a piece of
software that allows conneciotns between different databases, but what about
different servers? I also thought about using perl, would it be possible to
connect to different server from within perl trigger?
Thanks in advance.

Yes it is possible. A PL/Perl trigger is one option you have.
dblink (in contrib) and dbi-link, dblink-tds, oralink and odbclink are
other options at pgfoundry.org depending on your needs.
There was a recent discussion in the general mailing list about this.
