Mulitiple Boards on same server

[Madmp3zz]

I am currently running 3.5 on a public address and also wanted to have my test or Beta board running on the same server.

I would only be using the Beta for testing hacks and so forth.
So I would assume that I would need to create a new Mysql database also.

Can someone give my some direction on this one?

Thanks in advance.

How to create a new database (you could also use a table prefix in your exisitng database), will depend on how your host have set things up. It is usually done from a control panel like cPanel or Plesk.

I actually have the box running here at work.
So I am in charge of it.

Could you explain how I would go about doing what you mentioned.
I have FULL CONTROL of the machine and everything running on it.
It's an XP box running:
PHP Version 5.0.5
MySQL 4.1
VB 3.5

If it is XP, then downlaod MySQL Administrator from www.mysql.com (http://www.mysql.com/). Databases are called 'catalogs', and you can create a new one with a few mouseclicks.

PS If you are just starting a new board, i suggest you still use MySQL4 if possible.
