Try to uninstall it by doing,

Code:

#rpm -e MySQL-Max

If there are any errors post back.

Hi,

ok it removed that ok, however when i type "grep mysql /etc/services" it still returns the following:

mysql 3306/tcp # MySQL
mysql 3306/udp # MySQL

Kind Regards,
Michael

What happens when you do

Code:

#service mysqld status

/etc/services just shows the ports used by specific services but it does not necesarily mean that the packages that provide that service are installed.

bash: service: command not found

Did you do it as root (with the root PATH / environment)?

When commands are prefixed with a # it means you must be root and a $ means you should be a normal user.
