MySQL help needed asap!
 

hello everybody! I have installed linux redhat 8.0 and plan on using it as a server only! I have installed all the 3 disks and I do have access to mysql from the terminal. What I want to do is set up a mysql database, 1) a database name
2) a database username
3) a database password

I will be using the database only for the phpBB2 forum that I will be setting up!

What is the first step to take followed by the rest! I have seen many posts about this subject and none of them are clear at all! REMEMBER you are talking to somebody who doesent know every term you maybe talking about so please try to explain in a little more detail if you can. ( :newbie: ) Hopefully this will turn out to be a good help topic for beginners!

The floor is now yours!

The reason why I put asap is because I'm running out of time to meet my dead line and I need info asap to be able to meet the time frame! Sorr y if you were offended dude!
