Use the no-installer win32 package (it's just a zip of the core server files), psql should run on any version of
windowsfrom 95. You'll need some of the dlls as well - from memory:
Libpq.dll
Libintl.dll
Libiconv.dll
Comerr32.dll
Krb5_32.dll
Libeay32.dll
Ssleay32.dll
And pgAdmin /should/ work as well, but I don't know if anyone has tried it on NT4 in a while.

Thanks Bruce. So in general NT4 is out as a client and I might not even be able
to install pgAdmin as a binary. Bit of a bother that- I'm hoping to get clients
and users onto Linux RSN but until then being able to e.g. cut-and-paste out of
psql is something I find very useful indeed.
Alternatively is there a binary somewhere of the psql client that uses the
Cygwin DLL?
Apologies for sounding like a total wimp, I'm an embedded-systems guy who also
does Delphi on PCs. I'm up to a bit of C hacking under Linux but have never
dirtied my hands with C or C++ on Win-32.
