SSL connection from RT->MySQL?

I notice that the DatabaseRequireSSL config option mentions only
Postgress and there are no config options for cert locations etc. Is it
possible to force RT->MySQL communications over SSL? I don’t mean
getting RT/Apache to to talk SSL to clients, that’s a completely
different thing …

…late reply here but hopefully still helpful.

in general it’s possible to do this with mysql - i’ve done it, but not
for RT. I don’t remember the details but i worked from the mysql docs.

I set it up so the server required ssl on connections, but the clients
needed command line options, which worked in my situation.

it wouldn’t surprise me if there were generic system-wide client-side
options you can set in my.cnf.On Sun, Jan 14, 2007 at 07:20:12PM -0800, Philip Kime wrote:
