Hi,
I tried to install postgresql on my NT machine but in vain.
Following your instructions, I have already installed successfully
cygwin (1.1.4) and cygipc (1.1.7).
I started ipc-daemon & and executed the following commands:
1. configure --prefix=$HOME/local/pgsql
2. make
I fails during the make procedure reporting the error message below:
dlltool --export-all --output-def postgres.def access/SUBSYS.o bootstrap/SUBSYS.

Can you please provide me a workaround? Thanks Christos
