MySQL doesn't come on the Raqs so it was installed by whoever owned it. If
you don't know any of the passwords, there is a way to reset them. Found it
in the archives.

You say that you had PHP 4.1.1 installed for you. Did they configure it with
MySQL? You probably need to take a look at the configurations they did and
see if it has MySQL support compiled in. Make a file called phpinfo.php and
put this in it:

<?php
   phpinfo();
?>

Pull the phpinfo.php file up in a browser and look at the output to see if
it has MySQL support.
