Renaming a database.
If I want to rename a database for PG 7.1.3 can I just update datname in pg_database, or is there some other way (or more things I need to do) of doing it?

Thx,
-b

Why not try that with a small test database (after doing a complete backup of all PG first to be sure)?

Yup
Sorry for not replying sooner, was out of town for a bit, updating datname did the trick for me.
