Re: Queries via ssh-tunnel

Yes, it's possible. Set up the tunnel: client_machine:client_port <--------------------> IDS_machine:IDS_port Setup your client INFORMIXSQLHOSTS to use something like: INFORMIXSERVER onsoctcp client_machine client_port Be careful with the following: >From IDS point of view, the connection is LOCAL... this has serious authentication implications.
