yes you can. go to http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/lists.html and download the cygnus windows tool kit. the binary install comes with postgres pre-built so if you don't want to build it yourself you don't have to. after you install cygwin you will need to read the postgres config document found in c:\cygwin\usr\doc\cygwin\postgresql-7.1.2.readme. note you don't want the readme that is in usr\doc, you have to go to usr\doc\cygwin. for more support on postgres on win2k you should subscribe to the pgsql-cygwin mailing list. from what i have seen and read there aren't any really good win32 gui front ends. i have heard good things about pgaccess (a tcl/tk ms access replacement) but have not yet installed it. good luck and have fun! rjsjr > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of news.skynet.be > Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2001 6:28 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [GENERAL] postgreSQL on windows2000 > > > Hi, > > I'm new to linux and postgresql.
