I see in the log file that parameter "tcpip_socket" was invalid, but how can I connect my W2k client with pgAdmin III to my XP Pro server using Beta1 ? Is the Beta1 à standalone version ?
Nope - AFAIK it's a full version.
The documentation for 8.0beta is available online at:
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/index.html
If you look at the following page
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/runtime-config.html
you should see that listen_addresses is the new value and should be set to "*"
The documentation should be part of your installed package.
