Hi,

[newbie, Mac G4]

I am migrating from Filemaker Pro to MySQL. I have bought a book, PHP 
and MySQL Web Development, which I am studying in parallel with an 
Open University course, Relational Databases. This has given me a bit 
of a feel for SQL. I am quite au fait with relational concepts but 
the command line interface is a bit daunting!

What I am wanting to know is, am I best off installing 
MySQL/PHP/Apache on Windows98 (emulated on G4 Mac/OS 9.1) or should I 
hold off for an installation on a separate partition of LinuxPPC. I 
have tried installing on the Win98 emulator but there are loads of 
errors.

Are there issues with MySQL/PHP/Apache on Win98 emulated?

Do I need more than one computer on a network to use MySQL server or 
can I use the server on the same machine (TCP/IP)?

I have a virtual server account with MySQL/PHP supported. Is there an 
easy way of setting up a test bed there on the web and interacting 
with it via FTP/HTTP?

Sorry for the newbie ignorance. Any leads welcomed.

Tommy Beavitt
