where do I look for the two bindirs?
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'.
Rich is using Slackware and I am pretty sure it marches to a different
drummer.
