Hi all, here are some notes from the meetup today:
We went through making sure everybody had an Amazon EC2 instance they could access, then we installed mysql, created a database and user, then installed an admin tool, Adminer.
For anyone who hasn't got their instance setup, I have a video here that takes you through it (only the first 20 minutes or so are relevant, and remember to change your server location to Europe/London).
Here are the steps we took:
That’s about as far as we got, but it’s a good base for future projects.
This was the game link I mentioned that helps you learn how to the use the command line/bash: Over The Wire War Games
