Quoting Denis Bucher <dbuc@horus.ch>:

Is it possible to have a secure (crypted) connection between the client and mySQL ?

All that's currently available is the option mysql_compression, which uses libz. It should be relatively easy to add comparable things as long as no key handshaking or something similar is required.

An option would be using the DBI proxy, which supports encryption. It comes as part of DBI.

Bye,

Jochen
