Great, then mysql-server should be available.

This is weird, I see that package on the mirror mirror.ufs.ac.za:
http://mirror.ufs.ac.za/centos/5.9/updates/x86_64/RPMS/mysql-server-5.0.95-5.el5_9.x86_64.rpm

If "rpm -q mysql-server" still doesn't print any output (i.e. 
mysql-server is still not installed), try to check your repository 
settings, clean yum cache ("yum clean all") or install necessary RPMs 
manually by downloading then from the mirror above eventually.

After installing mysql-server you should be able to start the daemon by 
running the following by root:
# service mysqld start
