I haven't looked in the Cygwin FAQ specifically for this, but the need for the cygipc package is described in /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.3.README. It seems, though, that people don't seem to know about /usr/doc. You can find the answers to quite a few questions there! --Rick --- Justin Clift

Hi Rick, Thanks heaps for the offer. :) One of our users Joerg kindly pointed out a solution (and when tested, it solved the problem). It seems there's a lack of info about needing cygipc to be installed when installing cygwin. Would it be possible to add something about it to the cygwin FAQ?
