I am trying to connect to a server remotely using the command line client window. I am using MySQL 5.1 and I do not know why I am getting syntax error.

If you can help me, that would be much appreciated. username as user password as pass hostname as example.com I have tried:

mysql> -u user -h example.com -p ;
mysql> -h example.com -u user -p ;

I have looked at the reference manual and other verisons of remote connection with Server 5.1 but I can't see the syntax error.
