Hi all,

I'am running a small home network with a Linux server running PostgreSQL
and a few Win98 client machines.

I can access databases from my Linux PC with psql and from Xwindows with
pgaccess. But I'am still not able to access the database(s) from my
Win98 machines. Is PostgreSQL only for UNIX operating systems or can it
also be accessed from f.i. Win98 or Win2000? I have red all the
postgreSQL documatation but can not find anything about this. The only
thing mentioned is that it is possible to run pgaccess on Win98 and
Win2000,
but it does not mention how this is done. Can somebody help me to find
some docu about this or any suggestion(s) are welcome.

The second question is: is it possible to store, databases made with
microsofts access, on my PostgreSQL server running on Linux?

Any help or suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

bibi
