Hi, Stephan!
No, unfortunately, not. It doesn't work at all.
But I'm not lost anymore. Our buddy Tony Reina asked me to do a few things,
among them, setting some variables like pghost and pgdata, and, now
everything is okay.
I wanna thank all of you who kindly answered my post.
I'm working hard to be as good as yourselves and can help others like me
who are initiating with Postgres. I choose a platform which is not likely
to be very popular in open-source's world, so... who knows, can I, in the
future, get there?!
Thank you, very much, again.
Greetings from Brazil,
Paulo

Hmm, do
psql -h localhost
pg_dump -h localhost
work?
I think that'll force tcp connections rather than trying for a local unix
socket. I haven't worked with postgres under windows, but that might help
you.
