Is it possible to switch between versions of MySQL 4 & 5

on my debian server...?

[marcus76]

Hi,

I've a new VPS, within webmin - i've listed the packages relating to mysql and i have the following list. The site i run does not support MySQL 5.0 though will do in the future. Is there a way to have the 2 versions installed but make version 4.0 the default. Currently it defaults to version 5.0.32. I'd really appreciate some advice on how this is done.

Kind Regards

Marc
