In Windows PostgreSQL spawns numerous postgres.exe processes. When you look at the actual command line you see the command that started the process. For example: "c:/PostgreSQL/8.4/bin/postgres.exe" "--forkbackend" "1372" My questions 1. In the example above does 1372 represent a port? >>> NO 2. If it is a port then how can I change the ports used OR avoid using certain ports? >>>NOT A PORT Thanks, Bruce. >>> The "1372" is a system process id (pid), basically a PK for a Window's process. >>> David J.
