Hi all

i am new to postgresql. I have setup 7.1.3 version using the cygwin setup in
Windows NT workstation
and it working.
After that i created an installation for postgres. This copies the necessary
files.
When i run the initdb command i find some differences from the original
machine.
When initdb is executed in the original machine
"usr/share/postgresql/data/base/1/*.*" and
"usr/share/postgresql/data/base/18719/*.*
and other files are created.(using "initdb -D usr/share/postgresql/data"
from the POSTGRES_HOME)
But in the installed machine "usr/share/postgresql/data/base/18719/*.*  is
not there.
I think this is created when the template1 is copied to template0 .(inside
initdb)
What went wrong ?.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance.

SKK
