From a bash session on my W2K box:

PC20 $ ipc-daemon &
[1] 568
PC20 $ ps
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
1564 1 1564 1564 0 500 13:56:56 /usr/bin/bash
568 1564 568 1608 0 500 13:57:50
/usr/local/bin/ipc-daemon
1436 1564 1436 868 0 500 13:57:52 /usr/bin/ps

The second process shown by the ps is the ipc-daemon running correctly. Note
that it doesn't ship by default with either Cygwin or PostgreSQL, so you may
need to download it from
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/cygipc/index.html.
See /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.3.README for more details.

Regards, Dave.
