cygipc works only for administrator?


Hi,

I've been trying to run postgresql as a daemon, but I failed so far
due to a problem with shared memory. I've set up the latest cygipc
release on an NT4 box with a fairly recent (~2 weeks) Cygwin
installation according to the cygipc README. I run cygipc as a daemon
under the local system account. This works well and ipctest g|h|s
works if run as an administrator. If I try the same from any other
account, ipctest h will fail. I tried this from my postgres account
which has all the user rights that postgresql needs to run as a daemon
(it fails all the same from any regular user account). The test output
reads:

postgres@WUTZ ~
$ ipctest g
Test v0.03
PRIVATE msgqueue 0 created

postgres@WUTZ ~
$ ipctest s
Test v0.03
semaphore 1 created

postgres@WUTZ ~
$ ipctest h
Test v0.03
Unable to create shared memory segment
shmget : Not enough memory
shmat return code= -1
nok
shmat failed, errno= 22

postgres@WUTZ ~
$

Apparently some additional access rights are necessary which on my box
only the administrator account has. The cygcheck output is appended
below. Any help is appreciated.
