Seems pretty strange for two romanians speaking english on the
PostgreSQL interfaces list in order to help each other :-) but ...
If everything is ok (match for PostgreSQL backend + Tcl/Tk version +
DLL's) then my first thought is :
do you have the same IP address on the win95 as for Linux?
Second idea: give full access for the whole class with trust to all
databases on the PostgreSQL server in order to check if it works!
Then ... (write directly to me teo@flex.ro) :-)
Best regards,
Teo
