3.4 Secure Connections

This section describes the principles of establishing secure connections to MySQL using
ODBC Driver for MySQL
SSL Connection
SSH Connection
HTTP Tunnelling
2015-2016
Reserved.
3.4.1 SSL Connection
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the protocol for secure access to remote computers over
insecure communication channels.
The SSL protocol runs above TCP/IP and below higher-level database protocol. It uses TCP/
IP on behalf of the higher-level protocols, and in the process allows an SSL-enabled server to
authenticate itself to an SSL-enabled client, allows the client to authenticate itself to the
server, and allows both machines to establish an encrypted connection.
These capabilities address fundamental concerns about communication over the Internet and
other TCP/IP networks:
SSL server authentication allows a user to confirm a server's identity. SSL-enabled client
software can use standard techniques of public-key cryptography to check that a server's

certificate and public ID are valid and have been issued by a certificate authority (CA) listed
in the client's list of trusted CAs. This confirmation might be important if the user, for
example, is sending a credit card number over the network and wants to check the
receiving server's identity.
SSL client authentication allows a server to confirm a user's identity. Using the same
techniques as those used for server authentication, SSL-enabled server software can
check that a client's certificate and public ID are valid and have been issued by a certificate
authority (CA) listed in the server's list of trusted CAs. This confirmation might be important
if the server, for example, is a bank sending confidential financial information to a customer
and wants to check the recipient's identity.
An encrypted SSL connection requires all information sent between a client and a server to
be encrypted by the sending software and decrypted by the receiving software, thus
providing a high degree of confidentiality. Confidentiality is important for both parties to any
private transaction. In addition, all data sent over an encrypted SSL connection is protected
with a mechanism for detecting tampering--that is, for automatically determining whether
the data has been altered in transit.
SSL is based on algorithms of asymmetric encryption and digital signature. Consult ASE
Reference Manual for information about Setting up SSL in ASE and Open Client and
Configuring SSL .
Note:
Usage of SSL is more preferable for ASE connections than SSH because of less required
settings and higher performance.
How to connect to ASE using SSL

To use SSL encryption for connection to ASE, the corresponding SSL connection options
should be set:
Using ODBC Data Source Administrator

Using Connection String

Login Prompt=False;User ID=sa;Data Source=master;Port=5000;Use SSL=true;SSL
Connection Options Description

Option Description
Use SSL Enables or disables SSL for connection.
Holds the pathname to the certificate
SSL CACert
authority file.
SSL Cert Holds the pathname to the certificate file.
Holds the list of allowed ciphers to use for
SSL CipherList
SSL encryption.
SSL Key Holds the pathname to the key file.

3.4.2 SSH Connection

ODBC Driver for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise allows connection to ASE server
from a local computer using SSH tunneling.
SSH (Secure Shell) is the protocol for secure access to remote computers over insecure
communication channels.
The general chart of computer ties when connecting through the SSH tunnel is presented
below:
This connection method provides secure connection between your application using ODBC
Driver for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise and SSH server that can go through
insecure communication channels, like Internet.
Connections between DB server and SSH server are insecure, therefore they should go
through secure communication channels. In the confluent case, DB server and SSH server
can be located on the same computer.
The principle of working of the SSH connections is described below. The SSH server listens
to the specified TCP/IP port. When the client tries to connect to this port, the SSH server
authenticates the client. If the authentication passes, the connection is established. Then the
client should create connections to DB server objects. The client sends an inquiry to establish
necessary connection to SSH server, and the server establishes it.
SSH Configuration using OpenSSH or other third-party

SSH tunnel
The following is the step-by-step sequence of actions for the easiest case of using OpenSSH
for Windows. The detailed description of each command you can see in the documentation
for OpenSSH.
1. Download OpenSSH for Windows from http://sourceforge.net/projects/sshwindows/
2. Install SSH server:
o Choose a machine that will be used as SSH server. It does not have to be the same
machine that is a ASE server, but communication channel between SSH server and
ASE server must be protected

o Using Windows Control Panel create a user and set a password for him. For example,
SSHUser with password SSHPass
o Install Open SSH. It is enough to install only Server components
o Open OpenSSH/bin folder
o Add SSHUser to the list of allowed users:
mkpasswd -l -u SSHUser >> ..\etc\passwd
o Use mkgroup to create a group permissions file
mkgroup -l >> ..\etc\group
o Run OpenSSH service
net start opensshd
Note:
There is no need to install SSH client, since ODBC Driver for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server
Enterprise itself implements SSH client functionality.
About the methods of higher protection (key authentication, etc.) see documentation for
OpenSSH.
How to establish SSH connection to ASE

To establish a SSH connection to ASE, the corresponding connection options have to be set,
like shown below:
Using ODBC Data Source Administrator:

Using Connection String:

Login Prompt=False;User ID=sa;Data Source=master;Port=5000;Use SSH=true;SSH
SSH Connection Options Description:

Option Description
Use SSH Enables or disables SSH tunneling.
Holds the host name or IP address of the
SSH Host name
SSH server to connect to.
Used to specify the port number for SSH

connection.
SSH User Name Sets the SSH user name for authentication.
Sets the SSH user password for
SSH Password
authentication.
Used to specify the path to the file
SSH Client Key containing the SSH Private Key.
If the authentication by key is used, the user

must have his pair of keys. The public key
