If that's the case everything should to be good to go after the port
is install.  With the exception of creating the root password (and of

On your original post you listed some stuff that looked like the

that is done for you..

verify the following in /etc/rc.conf:

     mysql_enable = "YES" 

start mysql:

     # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh start
