Not sure if this answers your question or not, but MySQL 4.0 supports connections under SSL and in PHP 4.3 you can set a flag in the mysql_connect() function to make it connect over SSL. That's assuming you've already got them set up, though. If it's the setup part you're after, I can't help you there. :) ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.
