   What do you mean by getting it configured?

   We're using MySQL on our server and if I remember correctly, it was 
installed as a pkg. from the WO CD as part of the programming tool set.  
The programmer that was working w/ it might have done some adjustments to 
it though, because I notice that the MySQL dir. in /usr/local is now 
named MySQL.old and most of the MySQL stuff is now in /usr/local/bin.

   If you mean how to do the setup so it starts automatically on boot, 
try this:

       1)  In the /etc/startup directory create a shell script that goes 
something like:

# Startup of MySQL - the MySQL database server
ConsoleMessage "Starting MySQL services"
/usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld &
sleep 2

            It's just something I modified from one of the other scripts 
in the area.

       2)  All the script names in the startup area begin w/ a number in 
order to force a proper load order, so we named our script:  "5400_MySQL" 
 in order to put it near the end of the pack.  Be sure to give the script 
the proper permissions to excute properly.

   We also moved the FrontBase DB startup scripts out of the startup 
directory to eliminate their resource usage.

   Hope that helps.
