# Host gate.com installation notes

 * Tested a UNIX hosting account at gate.com. It doesn’t look like a Windows account
   supports MySQL at gate.com.
 * Assume domain is called mydomain.com
    Assume username is michaelh and the password
   they assigned my username is ABCabc123cba
 * Here’s my wp-config.php settings:
 * define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘michaelh’);
    define(‘DB_USER’, ‘michaelh’); define(‘DB_PASSWORD’,‘
   ABCabc123cba’); define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘mysql.mydomain.com’);
 * Other notes:
    Had to activate the MySQL database but the database name and database
   user was assigned by gate.com. I could change the password for the MySQL database,
   but as initially created, it used my username login password.
 * phpMyAdmin is not provided by gate.com. They direct you to [http://www.phpmyadmin.net](http://www.phpmyadmin.net)
   to download/upload/configure phpMyAdmin on your own (like you would do with WordPress).
