To make things clear: PostgreSQL is a relational database management system. That means it's the database engine itself bundled with some administrative tools and more. Among this more is a odbc interface to Postgres. With this it's possible to access Postgres Databases via ODBC from other processes or remote machines, no matter which flavour their OS is. As far as I understand your question, you want to connect from a Linux machine to a database hosted on a Windows machine. That means your database client runs on Linux and your database server on Windows. That's possible too, but you need other tools. First your Linux client has to be able to do remote database access via odbc. One odbc-manager running under Linux is iodbc. Next your database server on Windows must offer an odbc interface. Then it's possible to access a Windows database from Linux. Did you know, it's possible to compile and run PostgreSQL under Windows. Maybe this could be a solution for you. > ... Regards -- Dipl-Ing.
