FWIW I too am very wet behind the ears in Linux, but I installed Mandrake 8.1 and have MySql, PHP4, and Apache server all talking to each other without any configuring by me. Other than what I had to select during installation of course. If you choose to go that way make sure you select the 'expert' install option. You do not have to be very expert to use it. And BTW I also am able to use Postgres too as I want to learn about both of these excellent products.
