For a basic forum you don't need eZ publish, there are plenty of easier and fully functional forums out there that you can use instead (look at www.hotscripts.com), but, if they work too with a MySql database, you will have to know also the same things that eZ publish is asking for now. For you:
server name: localhost (usually)
database: aaa
username: bbb password: ccc
