Simple method would be to load pg_dump on their machine and shell to it.
PGadminIII appears to do this and it runs well going from postgres on linux
to a XP machine.

Subject: [ODBC] Using pg_dump through odbc
Hello,
I am using Delphi with psqlodbc and postgresql.
The problem is that I want the users to be able to backup the database
from client stations by pressing a button. So my question is how can I run
a pg_dump or psql command from delphi through odbc and get back the
dumped data ?
Any ideea or maybe a workaround?
Thank you,
Adrian Din,
