If you spent as much time reading the INSTALL file as I did reading your sig
text I think it would all make sense... you need to install php into a
webserver (usually apache) and then install phppgadmin into the webserver. it
operates independant of the postgresql server itself, so being on cigwyn will
make no difference to phppgadmin.
