Hello,

In pgAdmin III, I can create a new database by right-clicking on the "Databases" folder in the left panel then choosing "New Database".  I also can create data bases in the Terminal by using the code "createdb db1" that will show up in pgAdmin after I click refresh.

My question is -- how do I find where on my hard drive the newly created database ends up?  I have searched the names, with no luck.  Could it have to do with the OID number (what is an "OID")?  When I set up the server, I used "localhost" and socket "5432".

system: Mac OS X 10.6.8

Thanks,
Kevin
