Hi,
I have a user of one of our tools who claims that after he uses our tool to compare two MySQL databases using SSH, subsequent connections to the same server using SSH "don't work". I'm the support person caught between this user and a development team that has disbanded, so I don't know anything about how this component works. Is this a problem that's been reported before? Here is the original forum post:

If we understood you correctly, you want to connect to the MySQL server, installed on your computer, via the SSH server, that is installed on other computer.

When you specify host=127.0.0.1, after connecting to the SSH server it looks for the MySQL server from its own location, i.e. 127.0.0.1 for the SSH server means the computer, where the SSH server is installed. You need to specify the real IP address of your computer, in order for SSH server to connect to it.

Thanks for your reply.
I have not heard back from the user who originally reported the problem so I assume it's okay.
