Dear All

Has anyone managed to run Postgres 1.05 under FreeBSD 2.1.5R.

I'm helping a colleague write an ISP management suite running 
under FreeBSD (2.1.5R). Running under SunOS we had no problems using 
Postgres95 (1.05) as a backend to RADIUS, NIS and other user 
management functions.

Compiling under FreeBSD comes up with a few more compiler warnings
and a memory error at runtime :

  % postmaster -S
  IpcMemoryCreate: memKey=155356396 , size=760632 ,
  permission=384IpcMemoryCreate:
  shmget(..., create, ...) failed: Invalid argument

My guess is that we need another patch or library include. 

Any help appreciated.
