[thelist] Mysql > finding out the name of remote server

[Paul Bennett]

Hi all,

I've some updates to make on a db, which I want to do using the mysql command line client.

I'm getting 'Unknown MySQL server host' when I try to connect using:

Mysql -h localhost@<server name> -u <username>;

I have full file access to the server, but didn't set it up, so I don't know the correct name of the mysql server process running on it - is there any way to find this out? 

I've run phpinfo() without turning up anything helpful.

Paul
