4.) Database Information
==============================================================
Your MySQL database is called "lampuserXX", with a database username of "lampuserXX" it is located on the server crabtree.cit.cornell.edu.
This database server can only be connected to from the CIT LAMP web server. You can use DB connection calls from PHP, Perl or Python to
connect to it programatically, or use the PHPMyAdmin database management interface available from your splash page.
You may have already received the database password from the DBA via the electronic dropbox. If you have not, you should be getting a separate
email with that information soon.
More info on the dropbox: https://dropbox.cornell.edu/help

information. Also, please let us know when you are ready to make the switch via an email to the "webservices-l@cornell.edu" address.
