You have Windows as operating system and you need to connect to Linux server to transfer files from Linux to Windows and inversely. So you need to have Secure Shell known as SSH. In fact, SSH is a network protocol which enables you to connect to Linux and Unix servers over the network. It uses public key cryptography to authenticate the remote computer. You can use SSH by several ways, either by using it automatically or by using a password authentication to log in.
This article provides a list of SSH clients let you to connect SSH to your Linux servers.
let’s start.

An Introduction To MySQL Database




 
This tutorial will explains how to install MySQL, create a sample database, create a table, insert records into the table, and select records from the table.

Installation

You can install mysql using the following command:

On Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server

On Centos:
 sudo yum install mysql-server
Follows the steps below to stop and start MySQL

service mysql start
Starting MySQL.                                            [  OK  ]

service mysql status
MySQL running (12588) 

service mysql stop
Shutting down MySQL.                                       [  OK  ]

Verifying Installation
You can check the MySQL installed version by performing mysql -V as shown below:
[local-host]# mysql -V
mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.25-rc, for redhat-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.1

Access the MySQL shell
Once you have MySQL installed on your droplet, you can access the MySQL shell by typing the following command into terminal:

mysql -u root -p

After entering the root MySQL password into the prompt, you will be able to start building your MySQL database.

mysql -u root -p

Enter password: password
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 13
Server version: 5.1.25-rc-community MySQL Community Server (GPL)

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql>

Creating Databases
After connecting as MySQL root user, you can use this command to create database.
In this example, we will create unixmen database.

mysql> create database;

You can check what databases are available by typing this command:
SHOW DATABASES;
Your screen should look something like this:

 mysql> SHOW DATABASES;

+--------------------+
| Database           |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql              |
| performance_schema |
| test               |
| unixmen            | 
|                    |
+--------------------+
5 rows in set (0.01 sec)

Creating Tables
Before you create a mysql table, you need to choose the database that you want to use:
USE unixmen;
Database changed
The following example creates a article table.
create table article (
id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
name varchar(20),
number varchar(10),
page int(10)
writing_date DATE);
The command show tables to view all the tables available in the database.

mysql> SHOW TABLES;
+------------------+
| Tables_in_unixmen |
+------------------+
| article         |
+------------------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)
To view the table description, do the following command
 mysql>DESCRIBE article;
+-------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field       | Type        | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id          | int(11)     | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| name        | varchar(20) | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| number      |  int(11)    | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| page        | char(1)     | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| writing_date| date        | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
+-------------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
5 rows in set (0.01 sec)

Add Information to Tables

Use the following sample insert commands to insert some records to the article table.
insert into article values(1,'article1','4','a','2012-04-13');
insert into article values(2,'article2','5','b','2012-04-14');
insert into article values(3,'article3','6','C','2012-04-15');
insert into article values(4,'article4','7','d','2012-04-16');
You can take a look at your table using this command

mysql> SELECT * FROM article
+----+------- +----------------+-----------+-------------+
| id | name   | number         | page      |wrinting_date|
+----+------- +----------------+-----------+-------------+
|  1 |article1| 1              | a         | 2012-04-13  |
|  2 |article2| 2              | b         | 2012-04-14  |
|  3 |article3| 3              | c         | 2012-04-15  |
|  4 |article4| 4              | d         | 2012-04-16  |
+----+--------+----------------+-----------+-------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Update Information in the Table
You can update a stored information in the table with this command:
UPDATE `article`
SET
`number` = '6'
WHERE `article`.`name` ='article4

Delete a Row, a Column and a Table

You can  delete rows from the table with the following command:
DELETE from  where [column name]=[field text];
mysql> DELETE from article  where name='article2';
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT * FROM article
+----+------- +----------------+-----------+-------------+
| id | name   | number         | page      |wrinting_date|
+----+------- +----------------+-----------+-------------+
| 1 |article1 | 1              | a          | 2012-04-13 |
| 3 |article3 | 3              | c          | 2012-04-15 |
| 4 |article4 | 4              | d          | 2012-04-16 |
+----+--------+----------------+-----------+-------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

You can also delete a column using this command
ALTER TABLE  [column name];

And type this command if you want to delete all table
ALTER TABLE ;
