Hi, You could set up a Stunnel Server on host x which listens on a user defined port e.g. 3307 then tunnels any connections to the real server. You then just need to set up a Stunnel client on host X to connect to Y. www.stunnel.org This also gives you the advantage of SSL. If you want to protect the tunnel you could set up firewall rules or even client certificates.
