Which generates an index for quickly finding files, man-pages, libs, executables.

apt-cache search phpmyadmin
eskuel - A MySQL databases administration interface in PHP-scripts
phpmyadmin - A set of PHP-scripts to administrate MySQL over the WWW

You can also install webmin for Apache administration although AFAIK it doesn't have a php module.

just store your scripts in /var/www and then load localhost in your browser

Hi!

Try this: Get to the root shell and type in: (or copy & paste)
apachectl start

Then enter.
After that, type:
chmod 777 /var/www

This worked for me... at least for the apache and php... I'm not sure about the database.
Save your docs in /var/www.

Have fun
