Gary, Redhat comes with an additional RPM that you can install, named php-mysql-4.0.xxxx that will add the support you want. See http://www.redhat.com/swr/i386/php-mysql-4.0.4pl1-9.i386.html for more info, but the file should be on your Redhat CD.
>From the page above: The php-mysql package contains a dynamic shared object that will add MySQL database support to PHP. MySQL is an object-relational database management system. PHP is an HTML-embeddable scripting language. If you need MySQL support for PHP applications, you will need to install this package and the php package.
