Ok well, I just got my server running with PHP and I have MySQL. Right now I'm trying to set up phpBB forums which needs a MySQL database, so I want to know what is the fastest way to make one. I need a password and username for the database, as well. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

You need to use the MySQL monitor but typing:-

mysql

at a command prompt. You should then get:-

mysql>

Now you should be able to create a database as in:-

CREATE DATABASE;

Don't forget the semi-colon. Now try something like:-

grant all privileges on *.* to user-name@domain identified by "password" with grant option;

Hope this helps.

I would highly suggest you use phpMyAdmin, which can be found at http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/

It is a great all-around tool for MySQL administration.
