No, 1.2 does not work with 8.4, and barring having considerably more time to play with, it doesn't seem like a straightforward backport. There were substantial changes in 8.4 to the implementation of pg_listener, to change from on-table storage to an in-memory handling that would fairly much break the whole listener loop. Version 2.0 revised that substantially; that doesn't seem like a backport, though. -- (reverse (concatenate 'string "ofni.sailifa.ac" "@" "enworbbc")) <http://dba2.int.libertyrms.com/> Christopher Browne (416) 673-4124 (land) "Adding more frammishes to the manual commands seems like gilding the buggy whip." -- Tom Lane _______________________________________________ Slony1-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slony.info/mailman/listinfo/slony1-general
