1) General description of mSQL

mSQL is an SQL based system allowing easy administration of large SQL based databases. The mSQL server allows fast indexing, searching, and manipulation of millions of records.

2) How to use mSQL with your account

If you would like to use mSQL, simply email us and let us know the name of the database you would like, and any other permissions you desire (User priveleges, specific remote host access, etc...).

To access the mSQL server, you can use third party software such as PHP3 or Metahtml, or from the prompt using Telnet, type:
/usr/local/Hughes/bin/msql [database_name]

The directory /usr/local/Hughes/bin is where all of the programs you will need to access and work with your database are located.

3) Other resources about mSQL

The mSQL Home Page is an excellent resource for more information about mSQL.
The Mailing List Archives is another great place to search for answers to your questions.

4) Ways to access your mSQL database

Third party software can be used to work with your mSQL database. PHP3 and Metahtml are 2 products that can be used to integrate your web pages and database.

msql perl is also installed to integrate perl scripts and a mSQL database. More info on msqlperl can be found by typing "man msqlperl" at the Telnet prompt.
