Perhaps the startup daemons were created automatically?... When I googled
installing the mysql5 port it mentioned to manually execute the startup
launchdaemons.  As I said in an earlier email I am relatively new and naive
but none the less everything looks good now.

Thanks a lot guys for the great package maintainer!

What do you mean, created the startup items? MacPorts should be
creating all the necessary startup items (or, rather, LaunchDaemon
plists, on Mac OS X 10.4). For which ports did you have to manually
create them?
