Hi,

You don't telnet to the server, you use the mysql command line client

$ mysql --host="yourhost" 

etc.

Subject: howto: telnet shell


i have a MySQL server running in my office.  i need to be able to telnet
into
the MySQL server remotely.  can anyone point me at documentation that will
tell
me how?

right now (from a dos window) when i issue:

TELNET server.name 3306

-  it reports "BAD HANDSHAKE"




i think that somehow i need to supply a user name and password, but unclear
how
to accomplish.



thanks
