<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I just finished installing the Postgis on a Solaris system.
I had some problems during the process and I am lucky all got solved with the
help of the community and google.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So I am sending the following instructions to share experience
with others who also want to install postgis on solaris. The main steps are the
same as listed in the postgis manual, but I added some details where I think appropriate.<o:p></o:p></p>
