Excellent!  I have a series of jdbc jar files in /usr/share/pgsql:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       131792 Nov  4 15:45 pg73jdbc1.jar*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       163980 Nov  4 15:45 pg73jdbc2.jar*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       184176 Nov  4 15:45 pg73jdbc3.jar*

Is there a specific one I should use or can I get away with putting the 
entire /usr/share/pgsql directory in my CLASSPATH env?
