That's fine - I'm cc-ing you to the general list so others can help too.
You can find all the lists at http://www.postgresql.org/lists.html - you
can subscribe with a web-form too if you would like.

OK - download the RPM distribution for PostgreSQL version 7.4.6. You can
get this from the download page on the main website. Choose a local
mirror, then check in the binary folder for Red Hat rpms. There are some
for Red Hat 9 (in the UK mirror definitely, I just checked).
As root, backup any existing databases using pg_dump. Backup the .conf
files in /var/lib/pgsql/data/.
Stop postgresql 7.3 with "service postgresql stop".
Upgrade your postgresql installation with "rpm -Uvh postgres*rpm" in the
same directory as your new rpm files.
Edit your configuration files.
If all works, start postgresql 7.4 with "service postgresql start"
Check with "service postgresql status"
