Better yet, install a more modern Red Hat release ;-)

AS2.1 is very far into the "legacy" part of its support cycle. You
shouldn't even be thinking of installing new applications on top of it
--- the only reason to be running it at all is "this server works and
we don't want to fix what's not broken". You won't get any support from
Red Hat for running PG 8.anything on AS2.1, so why would you choose that
combination of releases?
