For de second question you can use shp2pgsql to insert the shape file into postgis table
for example: # create table and generate a index for the geometry column bash$ shp2pgsql -c -I shapefile eschema.table > file.sql # upload the data to the postgis databse bash$ psql -d database -f file.sql sql2pgsql command is installed in the default installation of postgis sorry for *my *english
