Actually, the INSTALL file (Un-Tar php-<version>.tar, and the INSTALL
file is in there) for PHP 4.2.3 covers the setup pretty darn well... I
followed the verbose static setup procedures and it work first show... I
will also confirm the default installed apache/php config will not have
MOST of the functions enabled...
As far as MySql, it also is pretty straight forward... I had no problems
doing this last night :)
