Hi, I got the following message when I ran pg_dump with -Ft option on Windows XP.
> pg_dump -V pg_dump (PostgreSQL) 8.1.2 > pg_dump -Ft test > C:\backup\xxx.out pg_dump: [tar archiver] could not generate temporary file name: Permission denied pg_dump calls tmpfile() in pg_backup_tar.c:tarOpen(). Win32's tmpfile() creates the file into root folder. But non-administrator users can't create files into root folder. So, I think it fails that non-administrator users run pg_dump with -Ft option.
