I have now installed SP6a but the problem is still there...
Can the problem related to the IPC package?
I've compiled & installed cygwin32_ipc-1.03
I think it's not likely since it should produce some
ipc-errors as well, but you never know...
I'm also using Cygwin B20.1, I have also edited the
pgsql_dir/data/hba.conf so it contains the lines:
local        all                                          trust
host         all         127.0.0.1  my.subnet.mask.number trust
host         all      my.ip.number  my.subnet.mask.number trust

further I have created the /etc/passwd and /etc/group in cygwin...
and generally followed the NT-port guide
