How to make a secure (SSL) MySQL connection

PHPMaker General Discussion (PHPMaker)

I am working with some data that is pretty sensitive, and on a server other than localhost.

I need to be able to connect securely while developing and then when the app connects from the webserver (siteground) to the database server (Amazon RDS)

Amazon does not seem to allow port forwarding over SSH and PHPMaker does not seem to support SSL.

Anyone else run into this or have thoughts?

I don’t think so. Please try it first, and post the result for more discussion.
