My RAQ had no mySQL loaded.  I had a bare Raq4 from a co-lo
and had to install it.  I don't think they come with pre.
installed.  I had everything else, php, and all the security
stuff.. installed. I went to PKGMaster and install it from there

I use phpMyAdmin to administer my mySQL database and it's 
awesome! It's like WebMin sort of control panel.

The issue was that I was working in html file instead of *.ASP
Connected, got everything working locally on my computer 
while retrieving remote data, while working I have to figure
out how to upload code and re-string the connection.

If this goes well, I'll put a info package for others like
me.  Everything is working right now but I need it for remote.
I'm waiting for some feedback on UDZone.com and see...

Thanks..
