Hello!

The problem is that I want to write a script "pg_start" that would do 
the following:

1) start cygserver daemon (cygserver -e -Y >>logfile 2>&1)
2) make sure that the initialization of the daemon is fully completed!!!
3) start the postmaster (pg_ctl -l ... start)

I really don't know how to program step 2 above. I wrote the following code:

while :; do
  if [ `ps | grep -c 'CYGSERVER'` -eq 1 ]; then
    break
  fi
done

but it did not work :( I think that it was because the line containing 
'CYGSERVER' appeared in the `ps` output BEFORE the daemon finished its 
initialization. Am I right?

Can anybody suggest a proper solution?

Thank you.
