856689 references a database OID (try "select datname from pg_database
where oid = 856689") and then 856777 is a relfilenode (in that database,
do "select relname from pg_class where relfilenode = 856777").
As for what "Invalid argument" on a file open might mean, my personal
advice is to get a real operating system. W2K is by far the weakest
link in your platform.
