remote mysql

[Anon]

I'm trying to install a php/mysql script on a remote server, this host gave me one mysql database, and the mysql account can only be used locally (no remote mysql access). But the script im trying to install has all the mysql tables in a seprate file that needs to be executed with the command "mysql dbname < mysql_catalog.sql". That gives me an error since im not allowed remote mysql access.

any ideas guys?
really need some help here.
Thanks in advance.

Just copy the file to your remote host via FTP. Then telnet or SSH into the remote host and execute that command.
You probably need a username and password in there somewhere.
mysql --user=username --password=password dbname < mysql_catalog.sql
