For a long time I've been trying to connect to mysql through a SSH tunnel. Although that si possible by setting up the tunnel manually (with 'ssh -L ...'), I'd like it to be done by PHP itself.
Now, with the SSH2 extension (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.ssh2.php) it is possible to issue a 'ssh2_connect' and then a 'ssh2_tunnel' command.
That returns a socket resource to the destination server.
So far, all fine.
Problem:
How can I force that socket onto 'mysql_connect'?
I mean, what I have is:
$tunnel = ssh2_tunnel($connection, '10.0.0.101', 12345);
But $tunnel is a PHP resource, and not in the format ':/path/to/socket' that mysql_connect expects...
Is this possible at all?
Cheers,
Hendrik
