Look for the php-mysql package (either from your cd or where you got the 
other rpms) and install that.

RH does not compile the DB support into PHP. They use the loadable modules 
that PHP supports. This gives greater flexibility as to what is running on 
each machine (you can consider it good or bad, but I like the module thing).

You may have to add (or uncomment) a line or two in your php.ini file to make 
sure PHP knows to load the module after you install it. I don't remember if 
the rpm does it for you or not.
