How to connect to mysql database using Putty?

Hello. I'm on Windows and I need to connect an application that does not support SSH to the mysql server of pythonanywhere.

Can you guide me on how to make this connection through Putty?

Thank you.

We have some generic instructions here: http://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/AccessingMySQLFromOutsidePythonAnywhere/. You'll have to check the putty documentation for how to set up an ssh tunnel.
