! How to install PostgreSQL on Windows NT or Windows 2000
! =======================================================
  $Date: 2001/10/25 16:20:51 $
  
! 1.  Install the Cygwin package.
! 
      The Cygwin package provides a UNIX-like API on top of the Win32
!     API.  It is available at http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/.  At
!     the time of this writing, it is recommended to use either version
!     1.1.7, a snapshot built after 2001/02/05 12:36:41, or the 1.3.x series
!     (when available).  Version 1.1.8 contains a bug that will prevent the
!     server to work.  Using older versions such as 1.0 or B20 might require
!     extra efforts.
  
! 2.  Install the cygipc package, available at
      http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/cygipc/.
      Do not use versions prior to 1.04, they will not work.
  
  3.  The Cygwin bin directory has to be placed in the path before the
      Windows program directories, because the sort.exe has to be taken
      from Cygwin, not Windows.

! 
!     A pre-built PostgreSQL is part of the standard Cygwin distribution
!     and is installed by Cygwin's setup.exe.  You are encouraged to use
!     this version unless it does not meet your needs.  Please read the
!     README file, /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-${version}.README, where
!     "${version}" is the version (e.g., 7.1.3).

      Do not use versions prior to 1.04, they will not work.
  
+     Use the following command to install the cygipc package:
+ 
+         $ tar -C / -xjf cygipc-${version}.tar.bz2
+ 
+     where "${version}" is the version (e.g., 1.11-1).

  4.  Start ipc-daemon from the cygipc package.  Use "net start ipc-daemon",
      if ipc-daemon is installed as a service; otherwise, use "ipc-daemon &".
      This program needs to be running anytime you start the PostgreSQL
!     server (postmaster).
  
! 5.  Proceed according to the INSTALL file.  (./configure; make; etc.)
  
  NOTE:  The following are known issues with PostgreSQL on Windows:

      if ipc-daemon is installed as a service; otherwise, use "ipc-daemon &".
      This program needs to be running anytime you start the PostgreSQL

! 
! 5.  Proceed according to the INSTALL file (i.e., ./configure; make; etc.)
!     noting the following Cygwin specific differences:
! 
!         o The GNU make command is called "make" not "gmake".
!         o The adduser command is not supported -- use the appropriate
!           user management application on Windows NT, 2000, or XP.
!           Otherwise, skip this step.
!         o The su command is not supported -- use ssh to simulate su
!           on Windows NT, 2000, or XP. Otherwise, skip this step.
  
!     Alternatively, proceed according to the README file supplied with
!     the Cygwin PostgreSQL package.
