[cobalt-users] PHP & SQL Install RAQ3I

["Michael Cannon : MASSHOST.COM" <mcannon@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

By reading the list I see this is a hot topic but please bear with me...

I need to install MySQL (on a RAQ 3I) for one of my clients and have a few
questions.  I have gone through the archives, visited cobalt.com and looked
through the mysql.com but cannot find clear info on exactly what is
required.

1. Do I install it once per server or individually for each client needing
access?

2. If once per server do I create virtual accounts within it?  How do I give
separate clients access while preserving security and integrity?

I visited the ftp site for cobalt but was unclear to which files were needed
to have a full install of PHP and MySQL.  I know based on some of the
threads quite a few people have installed it so I was hoping someone could
answer:

3. What files are required to install the latest versions of MySQL and PHP
from Cobalt?

4. Is their a minimal amount of memory required to run efficiently?

If this information already appears somewhere I would certainly appreciate
being pointed as well as any suggestions on a technical reference or good
tech book.

I also welcome replies offline as well as on with any helpful information as
I undertake this perilous journey!

TIA

Mike
