MySQL connection over SSH tunnel - how to specify other MySQL server?

Question

I\'ve got ~50 databases all set up at different host names, with the requirement that I connect to them through an SSH tunnel.

For example:

• SSH ho

Answer 1

I created a tunnelto the DB using this command

ssh  -L 10000:localhost:3306  user@ -N -f

-L is local host port it is user defined u can provide any port number

between 0 to 65535. 0 to 1023 are reserved.

whether you are using key based authentication to the server you should

mention the key like this.

ssh -i   -L 10000:localhost:3306  user@ -N -f
