Postgresql is now officially supported by Sun for Solaris 8 (solaris 9 beta 
coming this summer, BTW).  You should be able to download the Postgresql 
tarball and compile it on your box.  (http://www.postgresql.org).

I highly recommend that you join a Mysql or PostgreSQL mailing list.  The 
MySQL and postgresql lists are great, you'll probably get a response if you 
post there.  The address is something like:

mysql-subscribe@lists.mysql.com

And three great pgsql lists can be subscribed from:

pgsql-general-request@postgresql.org
pgsql-admin-request@postgresql.org
pgsql-newbie-request@postgresql.org

I hope that helps,
