If you add a database there, it will be "packagename_databasename". For me, if I were to create a database called "phpbb", it would be fdlm_phpbb, fdlm is the name of my website package.

Most software requiring a mysql database require 4 things:
Hostname: Check databases tab(screenshot below)
Database Name: See above
Username: Check databases tab(screenshot below)
Password: Check databases tab(screenshot below)

You can use the autoinstaller for phpmyadmin in your control panel to manipulate the databases. Once it is installed, navigate to the folder(usually your url then /phpmyadmin), login with the information on the databases tab.

If the database is for a game server, you must have "Allow external connections" checked.



If you need any further help please ask!

This was very helpful but what about MySQLOO? I found a download on the web but it requires libmysql also and that needs to be put in the same folder as scrds.exe but we cant access that on the NFOServers ftp.

Putting it in your root FTP folder should work.

This is our root FTP folder for our TTT server:
