Hello Vinayak!

Unpack the archive and read the INSTALL file inside it for installation
instruktions.
The administration and user guide you can find here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/...tive/index.html
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/...tive/index.html>

Greetings,
Matthias

See online docs here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/index.html
particularly
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/...stallation.html

Depending on what platform you are on, there might be RPMs or other
prebuilt packages that'd be easier to install than starting from a
source tarball.

We keep binaries rpms (and srpms for those we don't) for almost all
current redhat and fedora releases. They can be found here:

ftp://ftp9.us.postgresql.org/pub/mi...nux/rpms/redhat
