Start psql in the database of your choice.
Type:
select oid,datname from pg_database;
Look at the oids - you'll see that each one corresponds to one of
those funny numbered directories. For example, one such line on my
system is:
88721 | phpgroupware
Sure enough, in /var/lib/pgsql/data/base there is a directory called
"88721".
So directory "88721" contains the "phpgroupware" database on my
system.
