We have GeoNetwork running on MS-SQL using a JDBC connector. (http://www.who.int/geonetwork). We are still using an older version on the production site, but I have one of the alpha versions and 2.0 running on our development servers.
I did have to create the tables by hand though.
I could could put together an an install script for MS-SQL if there is any interest.

Jason Pickering

Hi André,
Postgres is supported in GN 2.1 and there is already a schema file to
create the database. Maybe I forgot to add that option to the installer.
Anyway, in the new beta you will not have to choose the dbms at
installation time but using GAST you will be able to change it any time.
As a general information to all, we are finishing the latest things,
fixing many small bugs and doing little improvements all around.
Maybe we will release the first beta soon.
Cheers,
Andrea
Hello Andrea Carboni
I think it is a great idea to add the possibiltity to use a JDBC for
PostgreSQL, but I struggle a bit to get it runnin. The Problems seems to be,
that PostgreSQL doesn't know the Charaktertype LONGVARCHAR, what during
installation stops the build-up of the tables. The problem seems to be that
PostgreSQL databases don't know the JaceType LONGVARCHAR. Is it a bug or
have I done somethin wrong?Best reagrds
André
