Download Putty from here. This is an executable, so we don't have to worry about permissions for installing it.

When we fire Putty up, we'll enter the I.P. address of the server, 10.10.17.50. Putty will then open a command line window to the server, where you'll be asked for your user name and password. Once you've successfully entered that information, you'll be sitting at the command line ready to go!

Type the following:

prompt> mysql

and hit Enter. This will open mysql and we're ready to get to work.
