- schestowitz, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Nonetheless, rather than a generic port forwarding guide (I use one for newsgroups), this one present a nice step-by-step howto to a newbie... it's less daunting.
- aut0maticdan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6There is one thing semi specific to MySQL here which they leave out. You cannot use the hostname localhost in this situation or MySQL will think you are trying to connect through the local socket and it just won't work out. So make sure you use 127.0.0.1 or make another alias like "tunnel" in your hosts file (or whatever its called in windows) which points to 127.0.0.1.
daniel - nxusername, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Yet another topic on how to "tunnel 'something' through SSH". These articles are all the same and as bad as the "how to 'do something' using .htaccess" stories.
- RockHorn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4While port forwarding using Putty is trivial and is a topic that shows up often, this gets my digg because I didn't think of using it for MySQL Administrator.
- Squeebee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Meh, I documented this years ago as http://www.vbmysql.com/articles/security/connecting-the-mysql-gui-tools-to-a-remote-server-through-a-firewall/
That said guys, the reason I wrote this up long ago, and (assuming this is not a direct knockoff) the reason this guy wrote it up, is that MySQL related forums are full of posts asking for instructions on using MySQL GUI tools with MySQL servers hosted remotely. SSH tunnelling is the answer and the people need instructions, even if you don't. - f00xx0riz3r, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Oooh.. lame! :)
How to surf the web via a SSH tunnel.

How to digg useing a SSH tunnel.
Lame! - monergism, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4This will help all of three people over the next year.
- offwhite, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is an old trick. I did it back in 2004.
http://brennan.offwhite.net/blog/2004/06/18/great-trick-with-sshmysql/ - Agret, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2or the windows app navicat....which was ported to OSX
- MatthewWilkes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The OSX app Navicat, which is an SQL administration tool, has built in tunnelling over SSH. It's stupendously useful.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Fatal error: Call to undefined function: digg_this_button() in /home/.lillehammer/mhillyer/vbmysql.com/wp-content/themes/steam/page.php on line 7
??? - cmiz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm far too lazy to write it up... but wouldn't a generic "how to tunnel something through SSH" sort all of these problems out in one fell swoop? That being said, I have used this process before when I wanted MySQL access to a server but didn't want to open up incoming connections to MySQL's root from outside. Tunneling is a neat little trick.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1SQLyog ( http://www.webyog.com ) is similar to Navicat.
- silentdud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1interesting... I am ACIS major.
- jmz635, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3There was no Google in 1991...
- chm0d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Totally agree!
Though some folks might find "How to surf the web via an SSH tunnel to a box where squid is running" more useful. - jon077, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0from cygwin: ssh -L 4444:localhost:3306 user@server.com
- RockHorn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I get this error message:
"Either the server service or the configuration file could not be found. Startup variables and service section are therefore disabled."
Anyone know of a workaround? Or at least a way to suppress this message? - marnikdotorg, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1I never said there was. You should pay more attention.
- marnikdotorg, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2This is very 1991. Let's write an article on "How to use Google to search pages in the internet".
- mikkelfunck, on 10/12/2007, -7/+0Let me know when you can do that with oracle..... *sigh* ;-)
