preferances

 Ok, so I know now why it is not working but as I am not versed in php
and not as good in Linux as I want to be I have no idea what to put in
any of these settings.  I am using mysql and the databases are working
correctly, meaning I can log into them via command line. If it is not
too much trouble I will put specific questions next to the pertinent
places.  I am sorry if this is too long.

** Preference System Settings
 **/

/* What preferences driver should we use? Valid values are 'none'
 * (meaning use system defaults and don't save any user preferences),
 * 'session' (preferences only persist during the login), 'ldap', 
 * and 'sql'.
 */
$conf['prefs']['driver'] = '';  I assume this should be mysql

/* Any parameters that the preferences driver needs. This includes
 * database or ldap server, username/password to connect with, etc.
 */
$conf['prefs']['params'] = array();  I can see that this should be the
user/pass of horde but what syntax should I use?

/* This is an example configuration for a MySQL preference backend. 
 * Be sure to set the prefs driver to 'sql' above if you use this
 * configuration. 
 */
$conf['prefs']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';        This part looks
fairly self explanatory to me (I could be wrong)
$conf['prefs']['params']['hostspec'] = 'localhost';
$conf['prefs']['params']['username'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['password'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['table'] = 'horde_prefs';


/**
 ** Category System Settings
 **/

/* What backend should we use for Horde Categories? Valid options are
 * currently 'none' and 'sql'. In the case of 'none', the categories
 * only live for the duration of a single request - they are NOT
 * stored in the user's session.
 */
$conf['category']['driver'] = 'mysql';  Yet again I assume this is mysql

/* An array holding any parameters that the Category object will need
 * to function correctly.
 */
$conf['category']['params'] = array();    Is this user/pass again?


/**
 ** Cache System Settings
 **/
 
/* If you want to enable the Horde Cache, select a driver here.
 * This is used to speed up portions of Horde by storing
 * commonly processed objects to disk.
 * Valid values are 'none' (don't cache any objects),
 *                  'file' (store objects in filesystem)
 */
$conf['cache']['driver'] = 'none';   It looks as if I don't really need
to change this setting
// $conf['cache']['driver'] = 'file';
 
/* Any parameters that the caching driver needs. */
$conf['cache']['params'] = array();
// $conf['cache']['params']['dir'] = '/var/cache/horde';


/**
 ** Mailer
 **/

/* What method should we use for sending mail? Valid options are
 * currently 'sendmail' and 'smtp'.
 */
$conf['mailer']['type'] = 'sendmail';

/* An array holding any parameters that the Mail object will need to
 * function correctly. For sendmail, this is mainly the sendmail_path
 * option; SMTP requires at least a server and a port (if nonstandard).
 */
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array();
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array('sendmail_path' =>
'/usr/lib/sendmail');  This is the correct path to my sendmail but do I
need anything in the array portion above?
// $conf['mailer']['params'] = array('server' => 'smtp.example.com');
