Ok,
problem solved for PostgreSQL 8.0.x. Was my fault.
Must have deleted the line export CYGWIN in .bashrc of database
user. So the database did not see that CYGWIN was set to 'ntsec server'.
But the problems with PostgreSQL 7.4.7+ still remains with cygwin 1.5.14
to 1.5.16. A few moments after the start of the postmaster command line
tools like psql or vacuumdb think there is no database, but
Java-applications with JDBC are still able to connect.
Regards,
Roland.
