Well Scott, you're not done installing the Server yet.
Go to the Doc sub_dir of your MySQL root dir. and brows the
*manual_toc.html* file. You will find the info you need to get started
there.
Just a suggestion, don't use the winmysqladmin.exe GUI, or any other GUI
tool for now, get used to the command line client first.
BTW, The author of probably the best book ever written on MySQL frequently
responds to e-mails on this list. Some well intended advice, get his book
(MySQL Second Edition).

=>Hi,
=>
=>I am using the binary distribution of mySQL for
=>Windows-2000 and am not able to connect to the
=>DBserver. I used the Setup executable to install the
=>application. I verified that the my.ini file was
=>created and contained appropriate information. But,
=>when I right-click with my mouse on the stop light
=>icon- to start the service- nothing happens. I tried
=>to ping the port that mySQL was supposed to be
=>listening at, and it said that the connection was
=>refused.
=>
=>So, it seems like I have not done something properly.
=>Any thoughts as to how to trouble shoot this problem?
=>
=>Thanks, Scott
