On a similar vein, is anyone seeing initdb hanging under NT? So far everything 
compiles, but it just hangs (CPU isn't going anything either, so it's not 
looping etc).

Peter,

Yes I had the same problem, but for me the reason was that I forgot to
start the ipc-daemon before running initdb.  Last night I had no
problems installing beta4 on WinNT 4.0.

thanks,

Also, AFAICT, ipc-daemon must be running under the same NT logon as
the logon that you're using to run initdb (or postmaster), or else
you'll see initdb hang (but use lots of CPU).

This a major PITA for me, because I went by the book (figuratively)
and set up the postgres service to run under a 'postgres' NT logon
account created for just that purpose.  That means I have to run
ipc-daemon logged on as postgres as well.  That's not so bad, but now
when I want to run 'make check' to run regression tests I have to
logon as postgres to do that as well (since the tests run initdb and
postmaster).  Since Cygwin doesn't have any su/sudo (again, AFAICT)
this means logging off my usual development logon, losing all my
pretty windows, and into the postgres login.  (Makes me appreciate
Linux all the more, as if I needed that.)

I don't understand why a single ipc-daemon process can't serve
processes for multiple NT logons at once.  Or can it, and I just don't
have it set up right?

Doh! That would explain it (although my CPU was idle).

Anyhow, it's now running (my linux box still has problems - won't connect 
to the net - so I'm having to rely on NT to get JDBC sorted). Oh hum.

I can't wait to get the linux box back up. Even though I like JBuilder for 
the IDE, I still prefer Linux for the serious backend stuff.

Not sure on that one.
