Example: `mysql -u USER -p PASSWORD -h IP_ADDRESS` SQL queries must end with a semicolon ; Once logged in we can show the databases available with the following command: `Show databases;` To use one of the available databases use the following command: `use DATABASE_NAME` To see the available tables within the selected database use the following command:`Show tables` Dump all items within a given table: `select * from TABLE_NAME` To comment out lines use the `#` character. (during a CTF I noticed that you can do the following: if trying to comment out a login page where you have a user but no password enter the username followed by " '# " otherwise the comment won't be recognized).
