Here are the things you have to do to activate MySql after installing the
port.

To autostart mysql at boot add this to /etc/rc.conf
mysql_enable="YES"

To start or stop mysql server do this
/usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server start
/usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server stop

You have to tell mysql to create its internel control db
by running this command.
mysql_install_db --user=mysql

To verify mysql is operational issue these commands
mysqladmin version
mysqladmin variables

To start command line session with mysql server to
create a DB enter
mysql -u root

The online mysql manual is at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/index.html

The mysql databases and log files are written here
/var/db/mysql
