Not related to Servlets. Moving to JDBC...

Database connectivity is no different in Linux that it is on any other operating system.
Perhaps you can describe what you've done, and what problems you're having, including any errors you're receiving, if any.

Dear Jaini the king,
Try to install connector/J - the driver which talks to your mysql database.

Dear Jaini the king,
Have you install the connector/J and set its path??
You dont need to create data source name. Its a little different methodology.
Please refer to documentation.
And still if it is not working then contact me.
Best of Luck
bye

Amit, were you using ODBC to access MySQL on Windows? If so, please do not do that. You should be using the Connect/J JDBC driver to access MyDSQL, whether on Windows or Linux.

What you need is a MySQL JDBC tutorial
