The person who installed postgres on the sparc machine isnt around
anymore, im still trying to figure this out. The postmaster or postres
executable do not have a "-v" or "-V" option that spits out the version.
The client side psql is 6.5.3

I usually startup postgres like this "postmaster &", and was told to
start it up with the -i switch. However postmaster doesnt seem to accept
that switch:
% postmaster -h
usage: postmaster [options..]
-a authsys do/do not permit use of an authentication system
-B nbufs set number of shared buffers
-b backend use a specific backend server executable
-d [1|2|3] set debugging level
-D datadir set data directory
-m start up multiplexing backends
-n don't reinitialize shared memory after abnormal exit
-o option pass 'option' to each backend servers
-p port specify port for postmaster to listen on
-S silent mode (disassociate from tty)
-s send SIGSTOP to all backend servers if one dies
