mysql

[Jeff Mings]

Dave,
the stuff you're running into has to do with creating your own database 
and tables AFTER installing and initializing MySQL.  To install MySQL, I 
recommend the RPM if you're running RH 7.1 .  If you're running RH 6.2 
or Debian, you may have to compile/install Apache, PHP and MySQL to get 
them to all work together.  An EXCELLENT reference for this is a DevShed 
article at

.
