-How to install PostgreSQL on Windows
-====================================
-
-$Date: 2004/07/20 22:56:40 $
-
-PostgreSQL requires the appropriate subset of Cygwin DLLs to be
-installed in order that it functions under Windows.
-
-This document assumes that you do not have Cygwin already installed
-on your system.  If that is not the case, then you will need to
-adjust these instructions accordingly.
-
-1.  Download and run the Cygwin installer.  Visit http://cygwin.com/ and
-    click on the "Install Cygwin now' link.  This will prompt you
-    to download a "setup.exe".  Save this file somewhere on your
-    system and then execute it.
-
-2.  Proceed through the Cygwin install wizard.  Choose 'Install from
-    Internet', specify a Local Package Directory and choose a mirror
-    site that's close to you.  Answer the other installer questions
-    appropriately for your configuration.
-
-    When you come to the point of choosing which packages to install,
-    expand the 'Database' section and click 'Skip' next to PostgreSQL
-    to change it to the latest version of PostgreSQL available for
-    Cygwin.
-
-3.  Once the download and install process is complete, open a Cygwin
-    shell and do the following for a basic installation:
-
-    3a.  Start cygserver for shared memory support.  To do this,
-         enter the command "/usr/sbin/cygserver &".  This program
-         needs to be running anytime you start the PostgreSQL server
-         (postmaster) or initialize a database (initdb).
-
-    3b.  Use the initdb command to create a new database cluster.  An
-         example command would be:
-
-            initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1
-
-         Which will create a cluster in the /usr/local/pgsql/data
-         directory, will prompt for a superuser password and will
-         set the default database encoding to LATIN1.
-
-    3c.  Start up the postmaster.  Use a command similar to the
-         following:
-
-            postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
-
-         This will start the postmaster, and if successful you will
-         see some initial log entries, and an entry "LOG: database
-         system is ready".
-
-4.  You are now running a PostgreSQL server on your Windows machine.
-
-5.  It is possible to install cygserver and the postmaster as
-    Windows NT services.  For information on how to do this, please
-    refer to the README document included with Cygwin PostgreSQL.  It
-    is installed in the /usr/share/doc/Cygwin directory.
-
-Building from source
---------------------
-
-There are some points that are only relevant if you are building Cygwin
-PostgreSQL from source:
-
-1.  Set your path to use the Cygwin bin directory before the Windows
-    utilities.  This will help prevent problems with compilation.
-
-2.  Proceed according to the INSTALL file (i.e., ./configure; make; etc.)
-    noting the following Cygwin specific differences:
-
-        o The GNU make command is called "make" not "gmake".
-        o The adduser command is not supported -- use the appropriate
-          user management application on Windows NT, 2000, or XP.
-          Otherwise, skip this step.
-        o The su command is not supported -- use ssh to simulate su
-          on Windows NT, 2000, or XP. Otherwise, skip this step.
-
-    Alternatively, proceed according to the README file supplied with
-    the Cygwin PostgreSQL package.
-
-Known issues
-------------
-
-1.  Cygwin's AF_UNIX sockets are really implemented as AF_INET sockets
-    so they are inherently insecure.
-
-2.  "make check" can generate spurious regression test failures due to
-    overflowing the listen() backlog queue which causes connection
-    refused errors or hangs. You can limit the number of connections
-    using the MAX_CONNECTIONS option thus:
-
-       make MAX_CONNECTIONS=5 check
-
-    (On some systems you can have up to about 10 simultaneous connections).
-
-3.  The default cygserver configuration may need to be changed (e.g.,
-    increase SEMMNS) to prevent PostgreSQL from failing due to a lack of
-    system resources.
