NOTE: there is another version of PostgreSQL for Windows installed on my system (UltraSQL), and that is the one that appears at my current path.
Please check out these sample sessions and the problems I am facing:
============================

Here is my directory structure after installation is completed (no `/etc/profile` exists, also no `/home` directory exists)

bash-2.05b$ cd ..
bash-2.05b$ /usr/bin/ls bin cygwin.bat cygwin.ico etc lib tmp usr var

============================
Trying to run PostgreSQL: ------------------------
I had the following file under setup directory `cygipc`:
cygipc-2.02-1.tar.bz2
And under directory `/usr/bin` after installation I can find no `ipc-daemon` executable, only
`ipc-daemon2.exe`:
bash-2.05b$ pwd /usr/bin
bash-2.05b$ ls -al ipc* -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 20992 Oct 17 02:25 ipc-daemon2.exe -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 3007 Aug 5 10:31 ipcclean -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 1665 Oct 17 04:29 ipck -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 5120 Oct 17 04:30 ipcrm.exe -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 7680 Oct 17 04:30 ipcs.exe -rwxr-x---+ 1 My Usern Users 11264 Oct 17 02:25 ipctest.exe
Is this file (`ipc-daemon2.exe`) the one I should run??? See my session output:
bash-2.05b$ ipc-daemon2.exe & [1] 3096 bash-2.05b$ mkdir /var/psql [1]+ Done ipc-daemon2.exe bash-2.05b$ initdb -D /var/psql basename: not found grep: not found grep: not found sed: not found sed: not found : bug: version number has wrong format bash-2.05b$

===========================
Any hints on where I should start configuring my environment? Was there some problem with the
installation or is this a matter of post-installation setups?
TIA, teufel
