Thnak you W for you suggestions.... in regrads to your 1-2-3
(1) Is mysql running.  If not, be sure that the mysql-server rpm is installed 
and that it is running and set to run on boot
i did this
chkconfig --list | grep mysql

mysqld 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off  

and this

rpm -qa | grep mysql

mysql-4.1.20-2.RHEL4.1.0.1
mysql-devel-4.1.20-2.RHEL4.1.0.1
mysql-server-4.1.20-2.RHEL4.1.0.1
php-mysql-4.3.9-3.22.9
libdbi-dbd-mysql-0.6.5-10.RHEL4.1
mysqlclient10-3.23.58-4.RHEL4.1
mysql-bench-4.1.20-2.RHEL4.1.0.1

        so that means Yes it is there and Yes, it is running at boot - correct?

(2) Is there a vpopmail database?  (Check that /var/lib/mysql/vpopmail exists, 
is a directory and s owned by mysql:mysql) 

There is indeed a dir /var/lib/mysql/vpopmail   and the owner is msql and the 
group is mysql
I see lots of stuff in there.... named like the domains that I made w the 
GUI... lots of things...( it made my head hurt )...

(3) Can the vpopmail user access this?  Try this: mysql --user=vpopmail 
--password=SsEeCcRrEeTt --host-localhost vpopmail
I tried that and got an " unknown option --host-localhost "

so..... what does that tell us?

Thnaks again

  Check the following:

  (1) Is mysql running.  If not, be sure that the mysql-server rpm is installed 
and that it is running and set to run on boot
  (2) Is there a vpopmail database?  (Check that /var/lib/mysql/vpopmail 
exists, is a directory and s owned by mysql:mysql) 
  (3) Can the vpopmail user access this?  Try this: mysql --user=vpopmail 
--password=SsEeCcRrEeTt --host-localhost vpopmail

  Most likely one (or all) of those is not working.

    Friends,

    I think i wish to start over with my qmail-toaster.

    I seem to be unable to create a domain..All seemed Ok to that point.
    No Auth to the back end is the error.

    I am using the guide of:
    http://www.qmailtoaster.com/centos/cnt40/EZ-QmailToaster-CentOS-4.3.txt 

    I am thinking about ...starting over from step 7 forward
    ====
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    7. Install QmailToaster Packages: 
    --------------------------------------------------------------------

      wget http://www.qmailtoaster.com/centos/cnt40/cnt40-install-script.sh
      
          sh cnt40-install-script.sh
    ====
    If I do that will that - blow away - the current install and allow me to 
proceed from there?
    what do you think?

    thanks
