Please get me started on my virtual server
I've been given access to a virtual server. I've worked out how to connect with it using SSH (in my unix terminal window). But I'm clueless about how to continue. The last time I made web services. I had a fancy web-based control panel. Now I just have the command line.
There are three things I need to know:-
1. What's the unix command to change my login password?
2. How do I transfer files into my account? (My log-in details said nothing about FTP, but I got an IP address, and I tried setting up FTP (in Dreamweaver) with my username and password - but that didn't work.) Is there a command line way to transfer files?
3. What's the command line to set up a MySQL database? In PHP, I want to do this:-
mysql_connect("localhost","databasename","databasepassword");
So I want to create the database with the databasename and databasepassword that I'll use in my code. (I don't need help with the programming side of things - just the command line stuff.)
Can anyone get me started? I know nothing.

NAME
uum - Kana-Kanji conversion front end processor
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/uum [-J | -U | -S | -T] [-j | -u | -s | -t] [-h | -H] [-x | -X] [-k filename] [-c filename] [-r filename] [-D hostname]
[-n username] [-l number]
DESCRIPTION
uum command provides a Japanese language I/O environment on the terminal. When started, uum searches and reads initialization files in the
following order.
1. Files under the directory set in the environment variable UUMRC
2. $HOME/.uumrc
3. /etc/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumrc
4. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumrc
uum can connect to the Kana-Kanji conversion server jserver running on the machine from which uum started or another machine over the net-
work. Even when uum cannot connect to the server, it can start to complete certain operations that do not require the communication with
the Kana-Kanji conversion server. When a conversion key is pressed, an attempt will be made to automatically connect to jserver if uum
has not already connected to it.
OPTIONS
The following options are available.
-H Starts with the conversion status ON (default).
-h Starts with the conversion status OFF.
-U Uses UJIS code on the application (the virtual terminal) (default).
-J Uses JIS code on the application (the virtual terminal).
-S Uses shift-JIS code on the application (the virtual terminal).
-T Uses UTF--8 code on the application (the virtual terminal).
-u Uses UJIS code on the terminal.(default)
-j Uses JIS code on the terminal.
-s Uses shift-JIS code on the terminal.
-t Uses UTF--8 code on the terminal.
-X Starts with terminal flow control ON (default).
-x Starts with terminal flow control OFF.
-k filenaSpecifies the key binding definition file. If omitted, the difinition file is searched in the following order:
1. File name specified with the setuumkey entry in the initialization file uumrc
2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumkey
-c filenaSpecifies the key code conversion table file. If omitted, the table file is searched in the following order:
1. File name specified with the setconvkey entry in the initialization file uumrc
2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/cvt_key_tbl
-r filenaSpecifies the mode definition file for roman character-Kana conversion (see wnn_automaton(4)). If a directory name is given, the
mode file under the directory will be used as the mode file. If omitted, the difinition file is searched in the following
order:
1. File name specified with the setrkfile entry in the initialization file uumrc
2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/rk/mode
-l number Specifies the number of lines to be used in Kana-Kanji conversion (larger than 0, and smaller than the number of display lines -
1). The default is 1.
-D hostnaSpecifies the host name of the Kana-Kanji conversion server (jserver). If omitted, the conversion server is searched in the fol-
lowing order:
1. Environment variable JSERVER
2. localhost
3. UNIX domain socket
-n usernaSpecifies the user name to use for the environment name for Wnn6. If omitted, the user name is searched in the following order:
1. Environment variable WNNUSER
2. User name of the user who started uum

tialization file, key binding definition file, or roman character-Kana conversion mode definition table file cannot be found.
Dictionaries are administered under the envirnonment name of Wnn6.
