My Window user's account (Administrator's one) is Stéphane (from french, so with accent => :( on the cygwin shell ). I have installed cygwin to try Postgresql. I have installed postgresql without problem. But since I have ended this installation, creating a new user postgres, and reboot on my own account "Stéphane" , I have a prompt : " I have no name !@machine ~" The only thing I've done between is to download on another directory , using cygwin setup the source from your web site to be abble to install again on my notebook (which run under W2000 either). In the same way I can't start the service postmaster (of Postgresql I imagine). the shell command (I have made the cygrunsrv command with the user postgres before) : "net start postmaster " give me back a system error 1069 (fail in opening an session). But , I can launch postgresql by opening a postgresql server session with "/usr/bin/postmaster -D /usr/share/postgresql/data" And opening another session with the classic postgresql "psql -U postgres template1" I don't know if all this way of proceeding is classic or if something's going wrong.
