more MySQL issues

[mazdaracer]

Let's step back a moment.
Initially the discovery came when trying to install postnuke and getting 
the "connect" not defined problem.

Wrote a quick test script for phpinfo. (point to 63.231.43.237/test.php)
No MySQL section per Mr. Young.

I then did "up2date php-mysql" and it updated a bunch of stuff.

I restarted httpd and mysql.

Ran test.php and still no mysql section.

And all this after the login issues, which seem to be ok now.

I must be missing a step (at least!). Been looking thru "PHP and MySQL 
Web Development" by Sams for some guidance but it's not much at this stage.

My next inclination is to remove all the php and mysql packages, stop 
httpd and re-install them from up2date. (RH8 btw)
