Hi,

When we run setup on Coppermine, it requests our MYSQL database name and password... Now, say we need to CHANGE this password on our server, for whatever the reason.. Which file(s) in Coppermine needs to be changed to reflect a new MySQL Password - without having to delete .lock file and rerun setup? Is it simply the config.inc.php file inside the coppermin/include directory? Anything else need to be reset?

for the cpg mysql user/pass...yes.

OK good, now what about FTP?

what about it?  cpg does not rely on your server's ftp authentication (unless you program it that way).  ftp authentication allows you file access to your server's home directory, there is no cpg (or any other web file/app) dependacy.
