Please help a begginner !

Hi you all,
I have just started :-( to work with MySql DB. I am trying to install Php Nuke on my server. In the config file it tells me to modify some fields like DB's hostname, Table prefix, User's table prefix. Since I am very very new I don't know how to do these. Please tell me where or how to get some help. Thanks.
Sadique.

It sounds to me like it's telling you to edit some PHP files.

Just open the files in a text editor, make the changes, save the changes.

I don't know how to create table prefixes. I am using cPanel on my webserver.

which is powered by ----? PhP Admin?

if u have remote admin anabled check into:
I HATE shell commans so I use:

http://mysqlfront.sstienemann.de/

how to use it?
=

http://www.splatt.it/phpWebNotes/EN-Book/mysql-frontend...

or EMS Manager

http://ems-hitech.com/mymanager/

If u do not have Remote Capability (due to hosting company)
what u can do is use the software above (*mySQL front is free) to generate the SQL code needed to create table(s) and then paste it into your CPanel and execute it....just a though.
All the best!
