First,
on Win95 wou have to use the -i option to postmaster to use TCP/IP and 
not sockets.

Is cygserver running?

Are your permissions correct? You are starting it as local user and not 
as service via the SYSTEM user, so I assume the perms are ok.

If you encounter errors and are awaiting help please follow the 
guidelines, which are described at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html
esp. attach cygcheck.out from cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out

I never came to test cygwin postgresql on Win95.
