Well, .. that's only half the server - you will most like want to 
communicate WITH the server:

         sudo aptitude install mysql-client

Note the use of "aptitude" instead of "apt-get" - aptitude is a 
unified interface to the package system that allows things like 
searches (aptitude search) and local install (aptitude install 
<filename>) not possible with apt-get.
