I am looking at getting started with MySQL. I note there are some i.d.'s when I get info on my files that have an identity "mysql" which leads me to believe that it's already installed but when I search under /usr/local/ I don't see mysql listed. Is it necessary to install MySQL under Panther?

thanks!
