Hello!

We have database PostgreSQL 8.2.3 on FreeBSD 6.0.
After reboot & fsck we have lost many files from base folder in
PostgreSQL PGDATA
Data Recovery Company can only restore files, but without file names.
Is it possible to restore filename by file content or another method?

It might be possible to do so, but it's not some simple operation.

Do you have a recent backup?
