If you mean do I have the distro media for Solaris 10, then I don't have
that. But I don't think I'll need it because I'm downloading pgaccess,
pgtcl, tcl and tk from the internet and compiling from source.

Yes

Since I'm using Solaris, I'd prefer not to use an rpm. Thanks for the
help. Do you happen to know if there's a good forum/mailing list for
pgtcl? I know this mailing list doesn't specialize in pgtcl, so another
mailing list or forum may be helpful for me.

Thanks,
Josh
