Rich Buggy

I’ll be using MySQL to store user information for the small business server. This could be done with an LDAP server and many people will tell you that it should be. I chose MySQL over LDAP because it’s easier to understand, easier to use and you’ll probably require it anyway.

Installing MySQL

Once more apt-get makes installing services trivial

sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0 mysql-server-5.0 mysql-common

That’s it!! You don’t need to do anything else in this post. I’ll cover creating a schema for users and adding a few in my next post.
