Robert,

It looks like you were sucessful in fixing this problem. All of the
PostgreSQL commands that I've tried work. In fact the results using
the PG back-end seem to be quickest out the of all of the servers that
I've tried.

I even tried issuing the the non-turtorial command: Select Version();
And it worked like a charm.
...
version
PostgreSQL 8.1.8 on x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC)
4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-51)
...
