In an RPM install the data directory is typically going to be
/var/lib/pgsql/data/. There may not be anything there yet if you
haven't started the postmaster once already. I concur with Scott's
advice to modify postgresql.conf rather than touching the init script
--- any package update is likely to overwrite the script.
(Not that you really need to worry about any future updates happening to
a Fedora 9 installation :-(. Why aren't you using a current distro for
which you can get updates? There are now-known security and data loss
risks for the last PG version that shipped in Fedora 9, and the same can
be said for quite a lot of other components in that release.)
