Hopefully you will find this useful. If you don't understand it, just say so, and I'll see what else I can do

Definatly check out the docs and learn how to do it from the command prompt, but after that, if you want a quick N' easy way of administrating MySQL, check out PHPmyAdmin

After reading what you have said, I am still a bit uncertain what you are trying to achieve. you are trying to set up a user for mysql or setting phpbb? What won't work?

If you want to add a user to mysql thru web in webmin, what you need to is to log in, using the port you specified in webmin. Then going into servers tab and then mysql. After you click on user permissions, then you have the option to add a new database user and set up the various settings.

I hope that helps.
