Connect to MySQL (WAMP) via SSH

Question

Hi I installed the latest WAMP on Windows 7. I would like connect via SSH to MySQL database and create dump.

As SSH client I use PUTTY.

I tried using the root account and also other accounts, but I get this error:

server unexpectedly closed network connection

Then I tried using another SSH client Private Shell http://www.privateshell.com/

I get this error:

other side does not support SSH protocol on this port

For connection I use these settings:

MySQL version is 5.5.16 I am not sure if support SSH connection.

Is it needed to allow SSH in phpAdmin or what is the root of problem?

Is there a SSH server on your machine?? If not you may install copssh - OpenSSH for Windows or similar and then try to connect.

You need to

Configure SSL on the server
Connect using the MySQL command line tool, not PuTTY which is a terminal emulator
