moved servers, can't get ssh path right for import

[tawnygirl]

I'm using putty to ssh the backup from the old database on a different server, fresh install of vb, and am trying to restore the database into the new one using the command line

mysql -h servername -u dbusername -p databasename < /path/to/backupname.sql

Keep getting a directory and file not found error... so it's probably the path that I have wrong. the backup.sql is in the domain's root directory and using the path of /home/domain/backup.sql (and several varieties thereof is not working... what's the secret to the path for this command to work right?

Have you tried locating it? If it's there this will find it:

locate backup.sql
