Windows XP Service Pack 2


This is not postgres problem but i cannot find a place to assign
"total control" or "write" access to user "postgres" to a specific
folder. I don't remember if i can do it on windows xp sp1, but this
means that all people that have win xp sp2 can create databases on
default table spaces only; or can create tablespaces only on a shared
folder (common place to all users who can write, delete, etc).
Later if i find something about this it i will post a message.

If you're on XP Pro, then you should be able to modify the security on
the folder by using the Security tab on the properties page for the
folder. Failing that, try using cacls.exe which should be on any XP
machine.
