Peter, cp /usr/local/share/my-small.cnf /var/db/mysql/my.cnf. Have a look at your new config in /var/db/mysql and make any necessary adjustments. There's some other configs in /usr/local/share so if you need something other than the small configuration file copy that one over. All depends on what you're doing with it. -John Peter Michaux wrote: > Hi, > > I am happy to have FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE and KDE running on my intel > box. I am now trying to install MySQL.
