you should contact your host for this info.. or use phpMyAdmin..
your host is the the database host (usually: localhost)
..you need a username and password to access the database.. and since you can have multiple databases on one DB server.. you need the database name. the prefix they're asking for is your table prefix.. like p_nuke_table or nuke_table etc..etc.. tables exist inside the database.
..I hope I haven't confused you more.. :)

Hi,
We are sorry for late reply, for installing the Post-nuke you have to create on database and assign a user and password for it. ( You can create it through "Mysql" option in Cpanel ),
Details are below,
1. hostname --> Localhost
2. Database user --> You assigned user for newly created database
3. Database Password --> Password you assigned for that user
4. Database name --> newly created database
Please do check it and if you face any problem please give the details so that we will do it for you. Thanks for your kind co-operation and patience. Have a great day.
