I'm using WIn2k/sp3 on machine at work connected to windows domain. At the "Service Configuration" screen it tries to make a userid "postgres". I get... "Want the account created for you?" YES "Random password is..." OK "Succesffuly grantred right" OK THEN MOST of the time I get "Account Error" "Invalid username specified: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password." SOMETIMES it correctly and proceeds to "initialize database cluster" When I get Invalid username I tried deleting the "postgres" user, rebooting, waiting for the twenty minute timeout windows authentication always seems to take. But nothing definatively works. I'll try a bunch of times and it will work sooner or later. I have found that by disconnecting the laptop from the network - it will install every time. This has happened through the RC series as far as I can remember. I've found no other references in the mailing lists. What is going on? Am I the only one?
