Try this way I think you will need the user and password.
Connection con=null;
try{
  Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
  // assuming database test
  // assuming user is root
  // assuming user password is me
  String connectionString="jdbc:mysql://10.5.18.135:3306/test?user=root&password=me"
  con = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionString);
[code/]
