I am not sure of Putty as I am using plink.exe that is the SSH tunneler for tunnel.
The thing is that I call up plink.exe from my app to create an ssh tunnel and then set the correct values for mysql_real_connect() in my app. What I am doing is that I am bundling plink.exe with my app and then ask the user for SSH info. Depending upon that I create a plink.exe process and then connect my app to the SSH process. I referred to Putty as many people seem to be using it and putty usese plink.exe which is the back end for it. Should I look into some options like what you suggested?
