TalkPHP - View Single Post - MySQL database connection with help of SSH tunneling

Well, to login to your mysql demon from ssh cli you use the following command:

> mysql -u username -p
> password

And you are now able to use the mysqld from ssh. You use "quit" to stop using the server.

But may I ask why you want to do it over ssh?

As for the ssh2_* functions, never used them so I can't help you with that :)
