Actually ... Darcy help'd me out in IRC after I sent this and the problem 
was on my part :(  I did an upgrade to 7.4.6 the other day, but the 
install location was different then my previous 7.4.0 location and my 
start up scripts were still referencing 7.4.0 binaries :(  Switched back 
to 7.4.6, and all is well ...

Definitely a sweet system though ... other then 'stupid errors' on my part 
so far (forgot to add pl/pgsql onto subscriber *roll eyes*), definitely 
*alot* easier to admin then eRS^H^H^Hthe other replication systems' I've 
used :)
