This is what I do...

$ more ssh_to_mysql_on_beta
#!/bin/sh

ssh \
 -t \
 -g \
 -L 3306:beta.domain.ac.uk:3306 \
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
 "./bin/sleep.plx mysql"

That last line is a trick to prevent the terminal from 'timeing out'. The sleep.plx application is just a little perl script which writes "sleeping $ARGV[0]\n" every 5 minuites.

Running the above on my local machine (linux) allows me to connect to mysql on 'local' port 3306, and have that magically redirected via ssh to beta port 3306.
