How to connect to remote MySQL server via SSH using JPA?

I'm trying to connect to a remote MySQL server via SSH in my Java project. How can I integrate SSH connection with JPA?

I'm using Ne开发者_如何学编程tbeans 6.9.1, JPA, MySQL 5.2.

I assume you want to tunnel to a remote mysql which only listens to localhost (or is firewalled)

The easiest way is then

1. setup a trust relationship between the account running the application server providig the JPA service to your application

2. create the tunnel using ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 mysql.server.org to create a tunnel which will connect port 3306 on the appservers host to port 3306 on the mysql server's localhost port.

3. Configure JPA to connect to localhost:3306

You can't ... You have to set up external ssh tunel.

ssh -N -f -L 3307:localhost:3306 login@remotwhostwithmysql

Later change connection-url jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3307/yourdatabase
