Dear Sirs!
 
    Every time I tried to run initdb I get
 
$ initdb
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "Taras".
This user must also own the server process.
 
The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

    Could You be so kind to help me run PostgreSQL server?
    I tried to run it under CygWin (CygIPC including, version 2.x, ipc-daemon2 &).
    Configure, make & make install succeeded, but I can't initdb...
 
    Thank You very much in advance!
 
Taras V. Panchenko.
