In my database server, I'm using packaged version of postgres.
I installed it using: "yum install postgres" and this inturn searches for the rmp.
So, its a packaged version of postgresql.

Now as far as my client is concerned, that has the middle tier component written in C, i don't have any postgres there.
Do you mean to say that I need to install the client version of postgres in the m/c hosting the middle tier component and trying to connect to the postgres server?

Are you running a packaged version of postgresql (rpm / deb???) or
installing from source?

If it's packaged, you should be able to get away with just the
postgresql and -client packages, no -server etc...

If it's source compiled, look in the INSTALL file.  From the 7.4.13
INSTALL file we find this:

       Client-only installation: If you want to install only the client
       applications and interface libraries, then you can use these
       commands:
gmake -C src/bin install
gmake -C src/include install
gmake -C src/interfaces install
gmake -C doc install
