How can I access my MySQL databases?
First you’ll need to sign up for sql.mit.edu.
After that, you must use the sql.mit.edu web interface to create and drop databases. A regular MySQL client, such as phpMyAdmin (described below), cannot be used for these operations.
All other SQL commands can be issued from any host, client, and/or script of your choice; simply connect to the MySQL server at sql.mit.edu using your new MySQL username and password. You can also access your databases using an online web interface called phpMyAdmin.
