The very second paragraph on the front page of cygwin.com says "The
Cygwin DLL works with all non-beta, non "release candidate", ix86 32 bit
versions of Windows since Windows 95, with the exception of Windows
CE.".  So yes Cygwin and cron are fully supported with 2k3.

You should read /usr/share/doc/cygwin/cron.README and use the
/usr/bin/cron-config script to install the service.

If you cannot get it working then you should post a problem report as
instructed at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>, which at the minimum
would include the exact steps you used to install the cron service, how
you tested it (cronjob used, expected result, error messages from the
event log and log files, etc), cygcheck output, and so on.

A message saying simply "cron does not work" will likely get no
responses.

Huh?  Sorry, but I don't really grok the above.  It is usually recommended
to make your questions easy to understand when soliciting help.

Anyway, my WAG is to use NT's User Manager to create a user (group) called
"bin" and then use Cygwin's mkpasswd (mkgroup) to sync the /etc/passwd
(/etc/group) file.  PostgreSQL's createuser command creates database
users, so I don't see the connection here.

BTW, please keep your replies on-list.

Thanks,
Jason

Well...is postmaster *really* running?

Maybe, PostgreSQL cannot deal with spaces in an account name?

BTW, the pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org mailing list is probably a more
appropriate forum for these types of questions.

Question?

[Chris Morton]

I have currently installed cygwin on my computer(Windows2000 professional).  
I really like it.  When i installed it created a home directory for users 
that i already had added aka "Chris and Administrator" but now that i have 
added users on It has not, and when I try to "createuser newuser" i recieve
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
        Is the postmaster running locally
        and accepting connections on Unix socket '/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432'?
createuser: creation of user "chris" failed.
Just wondering if you can help me out.

Dear,


  Would you kind to answer my few questions in details? Here they are:

  1. Virtual memory managment increases the amount of memory the     
operating system
     can use by allocating a set amount of disk space to be used to     
store item
     during processing. With the aid of windows 95/98, can you give me     
the steps to check 
     for the virtual memory of a computer system?

  2. Every programming languange has its own unique characteristic,     
thus selecting a language
     for a programming task can be a difficult decision. Can you give     
me the list and describe
     four factors to select a programming language?

  3. Computer security risk is any event or action that could cause a     
loss to computer equipment,
     software information or processing capability. Please describe     
briefly to me the following 
     security risks:
     a). Computer viruses
     b). Unauthorized access and use
     c). Hardware theft
     d). Software theft
     e). System failure

  4. a). How do viruses spread? When does a virus spread? Why are         
viruses not detected immediately?
     b). Would you name and describes 6 types of computer viruses? and      
please describe how this viruses
         spread in the computer system?


  Thanks for your help...:)
