Marvin Look in your ../cygwin/bin and check the version of your cygwin1.dll. Let me know. [Jason] this might help clarify the answer to my own question on the other matter.

Thank you Roger and Jason. I downloaded the cygipc-1-14.1 and installed on my XP Everything goes fine until I do the step: 8. Initialize PostgreSQL (*when running under the "postgres" account*): mgonzalez@guaj215desa ~
$ initdb -D /usr/share/postgresql/data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "mgonzalez".

$ su postgres
Password:
su: incorrect password As you see, I tried to change the current user to postgres. I left the password blank by pressin ENTER twice. What I am doing wrong (again). Thank you in advanced for your patience. MAGO | |
