Hello !

I have a user-written client (based on the C-API) and want to use it on a WIN2000-network. I want to secure the transmitions in this network.

Questions:

1.) Whats the best way ? SSL ? SSH ?

2.) How is it done with the C-API ? Or is it transparent (I have to do nothing in the client-software) ?

3.) How is SSL used ? Unfortunatly, the documentation is not very detaild at this point...

4-) How can I tell the MySQL-Server to only accept TCP/IP-Packets secured by the method I choose ?

Thanks in advance !

Hi!

You can use --bind-adress=IP_address

To bind to specific port only.

For encrypted connection, best way is to use SSH tunneling.
