i use postgresql 7.3 on cygwin on windows xp home.
i have found somebody suggestion to start pg process as service on XP.
i try and succesful on start as service , and auto start when start
PC.
but i must manually stop the postmaster before i shutdown or restart
PC.
if not the file postmaster.pid will left in /var/pgdata, then auto
start will fail.

1st question is : how to make postmaster process auto stop when
shutdown or restart PC?
2nd question is : if i forget to stop process , will have any problem
or not?

thank you

somphong s.
