RE: RE: postgresql 7.0 for NT

I'm no expert at configuring webservs with databases - do you have any good
links so I can approach this problem from the right angle?

My goal is to hook up IIS with postgresql, but no one seems to know how to
do it.  If I can't access my postgresql data from IIS, I'll have to worry
about losing my old data or importing it into what ever db I can use.

PostgreSQL works great behind Zope using ODBC for the interface.  I
use Apache as the front end in this case, on NT as it happens, but
others have used IIS in a similar configuration.

PHP/Apache also makes it easy to access PostgreSQL.

AOLserver and the OpenACS packages work very well with PostgreSQL.

I don't know of any way to "plug in" PostgreSQL to IIS itself -- I'm
not sure what that would mean.
