I have a .sql file with some database backups inside. Now I want to restore them back to MySQL. How can I this using command line of MySqL please? I found this:

mysql -u username -p -h localhost database_name < dumpfile.sql  

but I don't know what username should be, what database_name should be and how I could browse to a .sql file in another folder.
