Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if there are any help files or guides on how to define a custom 
coordinate system to use with the ogr2ogr.exe utility.  I am trying to use it 
to load a shapefile into a PostGIS database.  The shapefile is in a custom 
Minnesota County coordinate system.  When I try to define the -a_srs I get an 
error message that says SRID is unrecognized.  I'm assume this is because both 
OGR and PostGIS does not have the custom SRID defined.  I've also tried -1 as 
the SRID but the utility doesn't like that either.

How would I define the custom projection so both OGR2OGR utility and PostGIS 
recognize it?

Regards,
Brian
