Hi, you cant connect to mysql with telnet, the service running in 3306 supports a dbms specific protocol so you need to use the "mysql" command aka mysql client to connect to mysql and execute any sql query.

Hi ppl,
I’m trying to access to mysql server by telnet. When I do like “telnet localhost 3306” if I write something the error is “Bad handshake”. Well can anyone tell me what info do I need to send to the server to establish a connection with mysql server? So I can execute some queries?
