O.k. so I am trying to tunnel mmysql using stunnel. So far I'm convinced it's not possible. How can you bind port 3306 on your tunnel when mysql is using that port? It makes no sense to me. On the server side if you run stunnel -p $PEMFILE -d $REMOTEIP -r 127.0.0.1:3306 I get "Can't bind requested address" Tunneling stuff through ssh sucks, and it seems stunnel sucks too. -- Ben Lutgens cell: 612.670.4789 Sistina Software Inc. work: 612.379.3951 Code Monkey Support (A.K.A.
