Subject: [CYGWIN] Deinstall "postmaster" as NT service

Hello, all,

as I have "postmaster" already in the NT (Win2K) services list due to a
previous (faulty)
installation of PostgreSQL, I cannot successfully restart "postmaster" as NT
service:

The command:

bash-2.05b$ cygrunsrv --install postmaster --path /usr/bin/postmaster --args
"-D
/usr/share/postgresql/data -i" --dep ipc-daemon2 --termsig INT --user
postgres --shutdown

quits with the error message:
cygrunsrv: Error installing a service: OpenService: Win32 error 1073:
Der angegebene Dienst ist bereits vorhanden.

How to deinstall "postmaster" as NT service or to delete it from the NT
services list?

In the Win2K command reference, I didn't find anything appropriate.

Thanks in advance for your support.

Kind regards
Stephan
