installing/creating a database on a Mac

Recent posts in this topic
I'm trying to install ActiveCollab on a Mac. I've successfully installed PHP with the MySQL extension and set all the proper permissions.
I'm getting stuck on step 3 of the installation wizard. I don't know where to find the information that goes in any of the fields.
It seems I need the same help as the person in this post:

which, unfortunately, no longer works.

check MAMP, once you've got the server running, you can use either use phpMySQLAdmin (or whatever) or try CocoaMySql - beautiful
good luck

How do I use CocoaMySQL? It asks me for a host or socket and I don't know what to enter.
if you have installed MAMP it will start with a page that tells you all you need to know for starting up cocoamysql, your host is probably gonna be localhost:... something
Worked like a charm!
Except... I want to be able to access this remotely, not just on this computer, which you can only do with MAMP Pro, which I can't afford to purchase.
So back to my original question: how do I create a database and where do I find the information to put in step three of the ActiveCollab installation?
