Set the connection properties and start working with remote MySQL data from your local system, all through a secure SSH tunnel.
#Connect mysql ssh driver
SSH Port : The port of the SSH server (default: 22)Īn example of a configured SSH client in the CData ODBC Driver is shown below the connection can be configured in any CData connector.ĭepending on the connector, you may need to configure a connection string similar to the following: User=myUser Password=myPassword Database=NorthWind Server=myServer Port=3306 UseSSH=TRUE SSHClientCert="/home/ssh.pem" SSHClientCertSubject=* SSHClientCertType=PEMKEY_FILE SSHClientCertPassword="" SSHUser=root SSHPassword="" SSHServer=123.456.789.012 SSHServerFingerprint="" SSHPort=1022īecause the SSH client is built directly into the connectors, the setup and usage is exactly the same, regardless of the operating system.SSH Server Fingerprint : The fingerprint of the SSH server.
#Connect mysql ssh password
SSH Password : The password for the SSH user.SSH User : The username for the SSH server.SSH Client Cert Password : The password for the SSH client certificate (if required).SSH Client Cert Type : The type of key store containing the SSH client certificate.SSH Client Cert Subject : The subject used to search for the certificate in the specified store (default "*").SSH Client Cert : The name of the certificate store, path to the client certificate file, or the contents of the client certificate.Configuring the SSH ClientĮach CData MySQL connector has connection properties that allow you to connect to a MySQL instance through an SSH server. To connect, you will need to set Use SSH to "true" and set the following properties: SSH employs robust encryption and, via the tunnel, makes client connections appear to come from the SSH server, rather than from a remote client. You don't have to configure your MySQL server to allow remote connections when using an SSH tunnel so your MySQL instance is safe. In addition to supporting encryption through SSH security protocols, which provide a strong record against attacks, MySQL can be configured to only accept traffic from 'localhost,' blocking all connections except for the configured tunnel.Īn SSH tunnel requires the SSH server to run in the same environment as the MySQL instance, but setting up a tunnel is simple once the server is up and running.
#Connect mysql ssh how to
There are two major options for securely exposing access to your MySQL database over an unsecured network: an SSL connection or an SSH tunnel. The CData MySQL Driver provides a secure, live data connection to MySQL data from popular BI & Analytics, data warehousing, and application development tools, supporting both SSL connections and SSH tunneling. In this article, we explore how to use the CData MySQL Driver with SSH tunneling, which is often easier to build and more secure than SSL due to the driver’s built-in support for tunneling.
