Hi Tim, to write a server wich will handle the connection is one way. But I think it´s more easy if I have a driver which integrates the SSL-Socket functions. My problem is not to connect through my own firewall to the mySQL-Server. It´s to pass the firewall on the client-side. And the only port which is open by default outside of 80 is the 443. I´m not sure if this is the right way, because I´ve no experiences in SSL-Socket-connections. Detlev

A driver supporting SSL would be nice, but it requires a server that supports SSL. Does MySQL support SSL connections? I do not think that it does. Thus, the need for an intermediary.

The are application that let you tunnel between SSL and non-SSL (e.g. ssltunnel). Of curse this would break MySQL's access controls based on IP addresses.
