Topic: What must I do? (very newbie)

Hello, I am just pionering with how to setup a forum.

So I encouter the following 'problem'.

When installing I get to the PunBB installation screen where I must fill in certain things.
I can select MySQL Standard en SQLite.

Now the next two things that I must fill in is: database server hostname
and Database name.

I really don't know what I must fill in here or must I ask my hosting server for this?
Or must I install/upload/setup a database myself?

Ok thanks smile
