[Zope] Connecting to Postgres on a Linux Machine From A Windo ws NT4 Machine Running Zope

[Farrell, Troy]

Rumor has it that PoPy compiles under Cygwin.  If you can get PoPy compiled
and then convince class Python(Ports.Win32,Zope) to talk to the PoPy shared
library, you're home free. Free as an African swallow.  Carrying a coconut.

The database adaptor is installed on the Zope machine. You may find it
tricky to install some of the DAs on Windoze; I haven't tried.

There have been several discussions recently about relative merits of PG
adaptors. Did you search the mailing list for 'popy' 'zpygresql', etc?
