Re: data transfer between databases

Look up pg_dump, pg_dumpall, and COPY in the user manual.  It should be
relatively easy to use cron to dump to a certain file every 10 minutes
and then send it to another computer.

That should be all you need if you just need to create a copy of
databases (i.e. you want an off site backup).  If you're looking to sync
databases against each other I *think* it may be possible to use a text
editor like emacs or vi to compare dumps between computers -- but that's
just speculation on my part.

Perhaps a Postgresql guru can chip in?
