Ssh tunnel to remote MySQL

Posted by Michael Thu, 10 Jan 2008 15:52:00 GMT

You’ve got port 3306 (MySQL) firewalled off and you want to use a MySQL GUI every once in a while (or maybe a bunch).

This is a snap with ssh.

On your local Linux/BSD/Mac/Unix machine (works in cygwin too) edit your .ssh/config file and add:

Host somemysqlserver
 Hostname server.mydomain.com #your mySQL server FQDN or IP
 User bob #replace with your valid ssh server username
 LocalForward *:13306 localhost:3306
Now do: 
ssh -f -N somemysqlserver

You can now connect to your localhost port 13306 and it will forward to your MySQL server’s port 3306.

Plus, it’s free and probably already installed on your systems.
