Hello.
I am used to those free hosts... where you could see all the info needed for installing things like cms's on the left side when you enter the control panel.
now i have a bluehost account.
where can i see all of that info? for instance, the database hostname?
thanks in advance.

The hostname is always "localhost".

Database and user names are your eight character account name followed by an underscroe followed by whatever name you entered.

look in cpanel in the "mysql databases" it will tell you all of your databases, users, and users associated with your databases.
