It's unlikely you specifically need 8.1.11; a later 8.1 should work
fine.  See http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning for details
about what changes between minor version releases.  8.1.11 is gone from
the major sites now because it's over two years old now, replaced by 9
newer versions that have only bug fixes you should not leave your system
exposed to.  You can find the whole list of what's been fixed in the
later 8.1 versions at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/release.html

You can find 8.1.18 and later at http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.1/redhat/
and probably have a reasonable choice available via yum too.  If you
must have an earlier version, you might find yourself needing to buy a
RHEL license, because they're the only company I can think of who might
have copies archived going that far back.  Note that RedHat has moved
long past 8.1.11 as well, for bugs that introduce security concerns.
