All very close attempts but you were looking for the wrong command. To run a php script you need to invoke php, so you will need to learn about Using PHP from the command line [us2.php.net]. Navigate to the directory as you did before and run a php command:
php update.php PuTTY itself is an SSH client. SSH is a secure shell (think of it like a Windows command line). You get a simple little interface with a command line to enter raw commands.

I get one problem solved and I just run into another! I tried that and I get: Sorry! This version requires php5; you are running 4.3.9. If you are sure you already have php5 installed, it may be installed in a different path from php4. Check with you system administrator. |
| But I'm not - according to a page with 'phpinfo();' - its 5.2.0. Is it possible to do something like: path/to/php5 update.php ?

Sounds like your host has got two installations there and they are getting crossed-up because of misconfiguration or otherwise. The default executable for either version is php.exe. Time to consult the host to see what s/he has done.
