<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=navy face="Book Antiqua"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua";color:navy'>I have two
development boxes both running PostgreSQL/PostGIS. On set-up several months ago
and the other today, the former has already had data loaded. I could fairly
easily move the Shapefile from one box to the other and then load but I know in
SQL Server I could connect to the other box and either use the data or move it
to the new database. Therefore, my question is does PostgreSQL offer similar
functionality? In other words, can you connect to other PostgreSQL machines? I
feel like Ive seen this via the command-line (pgsql) but not phAdmin. In either
case Im looking for help and confirmation. This more then just academically
interesting and could save a great deal of time. Thanks in advance.</span></font></p>
