I don't know the actual status of ArcSDE in 10.1, but in 9.3.1 they had
custom dlls (or .so) to do some sort of black magic.

I had a case where I needed to install ArcSDE with PostGIS 2.0, but ArcSDE
had to be 9.3.1 (32bits), without the support for that specific version.
Instead of using the 9.3.1 provided .so we used the 10.1 .so, which worked
just fine.

The problem, Paul, is not the client software, but the custom software that
needs to be inside the database machine.

Ours is all linux based (SUSE), so the windows part wasn&#39;t bothering me.  There \
did seem to be a lot of steps to follow in order to make it work though.  Our SDE \
folks are still settling on what to have in place as a DB.  Oracle is the front \
runner, but I was hoping to be able to demonstrate PostGIS as an option.  Just \
looking at options right now.<br>

&gt;  &gt; You may want to consider trying 9.1 with PostGIS 2.0 despite<br>
&gt;  what this<br>
&gt;  &gt; documentation states. It says that the problem with 2.0 and<br>
&gt;  older<br>
&gt;  &gt; clients is an incompatibility between PostGIS 2.0 and 1.5<br>
&gt;  functions,<br>
&gt;  &gt; but PostGIS 2.0 provides a legacy.sql. legacy.sql will create<br>
&gt;  the<br>
&gt;  &gt; PostGIS 1.5 functions removed in 2.0. See<br>

instructions on<br> &gt;  &gt; using legacy.sql. I realize this is not necessarily \
