[plug] Help setting up Apache/PHP on Debian

[Chris Caston]

Thanks everyone for your help I've got php4 working now but I still have
a problem with it not being able to access the database and of course I
don't know how to use MySQL...

Whats the commands for adding a user account and setting the hostname?

thanks,

Chris
