Hi all,

I'm trying to use "mysqldump" over SSH. I'm pretty familiar with port forwarding in and of itself, so I doubt that's the issue. No matter what port I forward (or to where for that matter), "mysqldump" still connects to the local MySQL server and dumps local data. It's as if it completely disregards my PORT option. Any ideas?

My commands are as follows:

        %ssh -L 8080:localhost:3306   remote_server_ip

%mysqldump -u user_name --port=8080 --compact --quick --all- databases > dumpfile

Depending on the "user_name" it either fails or dumps my local data. It doesn't even use --port

Regards,
Michael
