Hi Michael,
Bruce Momjian has written an excellent book called Postgresql - Introduction and Concepts (ISBN 0-201-70331-9) that I found very helpful when I was starting with PG and I can thoroughly recommend it. There's also an online version
Here.
Regards,
Liam

>I also downloaded pgAdminII to run from my Windows machine in a valiant attempt to set up some tables. For some reason, the 'Table' option under 'create object' is disabled. I was finally able to create a table through the SQL window. Maybe I'm expecting too much from pgAdminII?

>Sooo... if there's a setup guide somewhere out there that will help me properly configure it on the Linux box, I'd be grateful.
