<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry for this post, but, I'm upgrading our systems
and I want to get it right.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Jamie has provided a set of rpms to get RT3 on
RedHat 8</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A HUGE thankyou for sharing your work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have had RT 2.0.X running for eons on Mysql
& RH 7.1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I see Jamie's preference is postgres.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've seen some posts regarding problems with mysql
of late.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I understand the merits of both databases
generally, but specifically with RT in mind.....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can it be said the preference for RT is still
mysql?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want to start extracting information out of RT
using other tools (most probably with MS ODBC because I can't hack)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Could access for third party apps be the
reason some people prefer one or the other?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We won't be using the chosen database for any other
applications.</FONT></DIV>
