I maintain our mySQL database remotely using Access & ODBC from my Win95
machine. It works well, but I would like to increase the security of the
connection.

We have installed SSH on our Linux server, and I can log in using SSH Client
from my Win95 machine. The SSH client was obtained from
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~ci2/ssh/

Has anyone figured out how to get Access and ODBC to tunnel through to a
Linux server via SSH? Do I need to make any changes to SSH server, or is it
all set up on the WIN95 client side?

Once I am able to do this, is the entire session encrypted, or just the
login sequence & password?

Thanks in advance,

David
