yum install php-mysql
you could also
rpm -qa | grep mysql
and
rpm -qa | grep php
to see which things you have installed. I find it easier to use
already-installed bits of Red Hat flavored things, rather than building
from source.
YOu shouldn't have to worry about those things with phpBB, though
I will warn you that kiddies will pwn your box within minutes unless you
take steps to secure yourself -- I've been barraged with porn-referer-spam
over the last two weeks for b2evolution. They request like 500k pages all
at once, which drags my box into the ground, with the referer page being
some porn spam crap. I replaced b2e with a single google ad.
