I don't think the system command in mysql came into effect until
mysql4.x - use 'system <command>'.
Throw away the gui, and use a cli. :) it makes it a bit easier.

Subject: Remote Console on MySQL
Im doing a pentest and found 3306 open with no password. I logged in a
root using Navcat MYSQL GUI..
I can select one of the test databases and get a remote console,
mysql>
root@myipaddress does not have privilages to the main mysql database..
My question:
Can you run commands on mysql to interact with the OS like XP..cmdshell
in MSSQL?
