I am attempting to create a postgresql database under
cygwin:
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-4.0 WCA22291271 1.3.2(0.39/3/2) 2001-05-20
23:28 i686 unknown
on a WinNT Workstation. WinNT 4.0 SP5
$ echo $PGDATA
/usr/share/postgresql/data
nbk3r4y@WCA22291271 ~
$ initdb -d > initdb.log 2>&1 &
[2] 213
nbk3r4y@WCA22291271 ~
$ tail -f initdb.log
PG_IDENT_SAMPLE=/usr/share/postgresql/pg_ident.conf.sample
This database system will be initialized with username
"nbk3r4y".
This user will own all the data files and must also
own the server process.
Creating directory /usr/share/postgresql/data
Creating directory /usr/share/postgresql/data/base
Creating directory /usr/share/postgresql/data/global
Creating directory /usr/share/postgresql/data/pg_xlog
Creating template1 database in
/usr/share/postgresql/data/base/1
Running: /usr/bin/postgres -boot -x1 -C -F
-D/usr/share/postgresql/data -d templ
ate1
At this point the NT system hangs. The Win Task
manager shows the proesser pegged at 100% utilization
by initdb. cgywin "top" tells the same story.

initdb never comes back.
This user ID has NT local administrator rights.
Please let me know why postgres is dieing at this
point.
Thanks,
