You should probably also upgrade. The version of Postgres that came with
RH9 is going to be very old now. You should probably upgrade the OS as
well. While RH9 is supported by the Legacy project, they haven't exactly
been cranking out lots of fixes, so you should be very careful if that
system is exposed to attack over a network.
