As sql COPY"
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/sql-copy.html
In psql \copy
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/app-psql.html

COPY is done from the standpoint of the server so the file location must
be accessible to the server.

\copy is done from the standpoint of the client.
