    Thanks for confirming that SJA should be able to establish the ssh tunnel. I believe I've found the cause.

    I had restricted the SSH user account on the Linux box by setting its shell to /usr/sbin/nologin. I've tried both /bin/false and /usr/sbin/nologin and the results are the same. This seems make the SSH tunnel establishment a bit unreliable. It is clearly working sometimes, and definiately failing at others. Changing the SSH users' shell to /bin/bash seems to fix the problem, but creates a bit of a security hole.

    I have a slow (128kbps) uplink which may be contributing to the problem.

    If anyone can confirm that a /bin/false shell should work for SSH tunneling into a Linux mysql server, I would appreciate knowing this works for others.

    Best regards,

    Bonafide
