Help me..About MySQL and ODBC driver

46
Hi all..
Is it MySQL is totally free? No need to pay for the license? Or has any condition? I am new to MySQL and now as a trainee in a company and i need to store my data in MySQL server. All stuff I need to compile myself (including buy a new server.)

Another question is, how to setup the server in clients and the server? How to connect the clients to the server using MySQL ODBC 3.51 to the remote server from client? Is it neccessary to install ODBC and MySQL driver in all clients and server?

Please Help me.

Thank you..

MySQL is free, except if you intend to sell or distribute any software that uses MySQL and is not licenced under GLP.

You should read their open source licence.

Here is a part of it I think might be relevent.
Free use for those who never copy, modify or distribute. As long as you never distribute the MySQL Software in any way, you are free to use it for powering your application, irrespective of whether your application is under GPL license or not.
