I expect that Rev just gave example details and that they have not
actually opened a database connection to anyone called "example".

Do you have a database server setup anywhere that you can try to
access? If not, it is very easy to install MySQL on your own Mac
<http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html>.
Download the MySQL admin tools as well
<http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html>, so that you can
create a database and setup the user privileges.
