fmPreferences - SSH connection.
If
direct connections are not allowed there is another way - secure SSH
connection. Actually SSH is a kind of tunnel between two computers -
your computer and your server. Other connections can be established via SSH
tunnel. Look here for more details about SSH. You can use SSH for MySQL as well as for FTP connections. See "Preferences" window, "SSH" page. The only info you need is SSH user name, password and remote port number - basically the same as for typical MySQL connection.
Note: SSH
settings do not override MySQL settings. To connect to your database
using SSH you must specify all the required MySQL parameters as well as SSH.
If neither direct MySQL nor SSH connections are possible, PHP MySQL Bridge
connection can be used.
