I'm most experienced with MySQLdb on ubuntu, which is installed via
apt-get or synaptic.
I am setting up a mac mini with osX 10.7 (Lion). Macports makes

available?

that same filename on a remote server.
Let's say we have a file called '400.shtml'. I get the mtime on
my workstation by

I've using MySQLdb for years, but always on servers where I had
system-wide access.
I have an account on Hostmonster and would like to do some
development there, but although python2.6 is available, MySQLdb is
