Like you have said, you need to go PHPMyAdmin and there import .sql and fill your settings. With Frihost this is easy opertaion, but your page doesn't exist anymore :S

Frihost has two different servers with two different programs that you use to create databases, etc. In order to answer your question, can you tell us if your subdomain ends in frih.net? That will tell us which machine your account is on.

What's the problem? You just need to use administration panel to create a new mysql database, name it for instance dbforscriptblabla, then you should add those line to your config.php file in your script directory (or modify them if they exist or create that file if it doesn't exist) and change words on the right side of equation sign to anything apropriate, so you change the word database_name to dbforscripblabla. User name and password are self explanatory. I'm not familiar with frihost servers but most probably you could leave server set to "localhost". If it doesn't work check information about on which servers mysql databases are stored and change it to its domain name.
