Postgres will default to port 5432, so unless you've got it running on some other port, leave that part out. Actually, I'm not even sure what the "(/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432)" part is supposed to be -- the path to the socket it looks like but I'm pretty sure that's not needed for the DSN. If you wanted to specify a port number it would be the usual :5432 at the end followed by the table name (file). Try something like this instead: $prefs_dsn = 'pgsql://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/admin'; Also, is postmaster not running on the localhost but instead on the machine 'unix'? squirrel's password was also left out. This is OK if there is no password, but otherwise: $prefs_dsn = 'pgsql://squirrel:<password>@unix/admin'; > > Yet on login I get > "Preference database error (unknown error).

I'm not entirely sure, just taking some wild guesses hoping one of them might help :) Andre ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: eBay Great deals on office technology -- on eBay now!
