I strongly encourage you to review the following:

ColdFusion MX support on Linux 
http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?ID=23524

CFMX support matrix 
http://www.macromedia.com/software/coldfusion/productinfo/system_reqs/#linux

And, yes, as Todd described, you can always download a newer driver if one is 
available from the MySql web site, and configure it as "other".

Cliff,

Best to stay with RH 7.2... you can use Apache 2 if you feel you must be up 
there.  I run 7.2 and Apache 1.3.27 with little problems.  As for drivers, 
they're the same JDBC MySQL drivers that you find on the MySQL website from 
what I heard.  There is also MS SQL drivers, etc.  You can connect up with 
Postgresql through regular jdbc connections but you'll have to specify 
"others" under the driver settings and set it up manually.
