Hello,
This is a two part message\report:
----------------------------------------
Running Win2K Server " Please no snickers" =) All up to date !
Was running Cygwin 1.3.5 Complete install "net of course"
---------------------------------------
The first one is about "tcsh shell", that was not a real biggy. Because I
normally use "bash". Then I tried to get "PostgresSQL 7.1.3" installed &
configured and it seamed a bit more serious. I have included everthing I can
think of in this email.

The first thing I did was get the lastest copy of CYGWIN ver 1.3.6, this was
to try & fix the error I got when I tried to go from "Bash Shell" to "Tcsh
Shell" Error counld not find "cygcurses5.dll"
Then following the instructions in "postgresql-7.1.3.README" I downloaded &
installed "cygipc-1.11-1.tar.bz2". Following the README for "IPC". I setup
all the user accounts and service for "ipc-daemon" & "PostgresSQL". Started
& tested "ipc", all went good. Then went through setting up "initdb &
Postmaster", all went good. Then when I fired off the command "psql
templete1" is when I got the same Error as I did when I tried to use "tcsh".

My real question is:
 Am I to make this "cugcurses5.dll" locally on my computer, or should it be
part of the binary Dist. of "Cygwin"?
OR; Is this A BUG?

Both "ipc-daemon & postmaster" are runnig fine as services. throwing NO
ERROR or taxing the system.

I would be very thankful for any pointers or help on this!

Best Regards, Ray Martin  rtm1@indianvalley.com
