[Solved] MySQL Secure connection

[rakesh73]

I am connecting to MySQL on tommy externally. I feel that the connection is not secure. Is there any way I can connect to MySQL over SSL.

 

 

 

Thanks.

MySQL over SSL is not supported.

 

We tried to make it work a while back when someone else asked about this, and ultimately we discovered that it was not compatible with something (I believe it was cPanel itself...)

To use a secure connection you can just put your sql code in a php script, and then have your remote code access the php over https instead of connecting to mysql directly. That's actually a better idea for most applications anyways because your remote code won't need to contain your mysql password.
