      Assuming the bindirs are in your $PATH:
      

      aklaver@panda:~> whereis -f pg_ctl
      

      pg_ctl: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl /usr/local/pgsql94/bin/pg_ctl
      

      Even if only one is the $PATH:
      

      aklaver@panda:~> whereis -f pg_ctl
      

      pg_ctl: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl
      

      you can usually figure out where the other is.
    
    
    the RHEL style distributions don't put the actual bin dirs in the
      path, rather, they put symlinks to the common user utilities in
      /usr/bin managed via a system known as 'alternates'.
