I think I missed an earlier thread of this and I'm not quite sure what
your application is, but properly allocating user permissions on your
databases should eliminate any security concerns there. Also, for the
tunnel, whether you're using one account or multiple (one for each
user), those accounts should be properly secured as well.

What about the security though?
To be specific, i need to create an application (python 3.3 strictly) where
users will save/load their settings online to a remote hosted database. I do
not wish to change the database from listening to any other thing than
localhost for security reasons, so i assume the best solution for me would be
to make the program create some ssh tunnels before the saving/loading happens.
But would this policy make my database (or the rest of the databases that im
running on that machine) unsecure? Is there any workaround this?
How would you do that online saving/loading?
